Who we are
Friends of the children of Orissa is a Registered Charity, set up in 1992 to support a school for destitute children in Orissa (now officially known as Odisha) which is one of India’s poorest states.
Partners
PUSS provides safe accommodation, food and education for girls aged between 4 and 18. Many of the children live at the school full time although there are some who travel to school on a bus from local slums.
