The Nurture Youth Reforms Association(NYRA) foundation is a non-profit organization devoted to the long-term development of India's young girls. Approximately 6.7 per cent of the Indian population, or 84 million citizens, continue to live in extreme poverty, with daily earning of less than 32 rupees. Poverty has become one of the biggest reasons why virtually every girl in these homes is forced to turn away from the joys of adolescence and their opportunity to schooling and have to work all day in order to survive another day. This not only has a short-term effect on the child's psychology but additionally causes a slew of socioeconomic problems, preventing the adolescents from being literate and empowered in order to attain social and economic sustainability.
