About Us
Karuna Shakti Foundation is a non-profit organization committed to ensuring the rights, protection, and well-being of children. Founded in Punjab, we recognize the pressing need for a rights-based approach to child protection in the region. Our work focuses on both preventive and intervention-based strategies to safeguard children from abuse, neglect, and exploitation.
We believe that every child deserves to grow up in a nurturing and safe environment that enables them to reach their full potential. Through our collaborations with communities, government systems, and stakeholders, we strive to create a protective framework that upholds children’s dignity and rights.
Our Focus Areas
Child Protection & Safety
We work to prevent child sexual abuse by raising awareness about child rights and strengthening protection systems within communities.
Intervention & Support
We support children who have faced abuse by providing assistance, legal help, and working with child welfare committees to ensure their safety.

We advocate for child-friendly policies, engage with government bodies, and push for legal reforms to better protect children's rights.
Community Engagement & Capacity Building
We train teachers, parents, and community members, mobilize local action, and build networks to create safer environments for children.
Why Punjab?
Punjab has a critical gap in rights-based organizations working exclusively on child protection and well-being. Karuna Shakti Foundation was established to bridge this gap, ensuring that children in the region receive the attention and support they deserve. By fostering collaborations with local communities and institutions, we aim to create a robust ecosystem that prioritizes children’s safety and rights.
