Jungle Crows Foundation

The Jungle Crows Foundation is a sports and social development organisation supporting children and young people as they grow and develop. We work to be a positive influence by supporting and encouraging everyone involved with us to achieve to their full potential. - The ethos of the Foundation is to work to uphold the 1959 UN Declaration on the Rights of the Child "the child shall have full opportunity for play and recreation, which should be directed to the same purposes as education…." - We specialise in using rugby to deliver important social development messages and lessons to children. - The Jungle Crows Foundation was founded out of the city of Calcutta and is now active across the East of India and has projects operating in Afghanistan and Pakistan. - Our flagship sport and development project is Khelo Rugby which takes sport into disadvantaged communities which would otherwise be without any organised sporting activity. - Each week Khelo Rugby reaches 200+ children in slum communities in Calcutta with Coach controlled training sessions. - The Foundation also supports it's own rugby club which is successful at junior and senior levels in Indian rugby and draws players from every part of society.
