Every child has the right to quality care. Quality alternative care means a safe and caring
environment for the child to grow. Society differentiates the child as abandoned, orphan,
helpless, poor, and so on. Some organization works for their betterment. SOS is one of them
and runs charity concerns and mainly orphanages worldwide. Generally, SOS looks for
individual donors from across the world to sponsor a newly admitted child and the donor
supports the entire expenses of a kid till he/she grows up. SOS orphanages are called 'SOS
Village ' and the houses are called "home”. The homes consist of 8-10 members including a
care giver. The system of SOS village is structured with rigid rules and norms. The challenge
of this project is to connect them with the community and creating a child friendly space so
these child can grow up just as another child in society.
