Asking for help is the first step
If you or someone you know is facing hardship, you can ask Prerit Welfare Foundation for support.
We review every request carefully and confidentially. Depending on the need, our resources and the activities running in your area, we may be able to help directly, connect you with another organisation or service, or guide you to a government welfare scheme.
- Applying is free - the foundation never asks for money to process a request
- Your details are kept confidential
- Track your request with your reference number
