 Established in 1979, as "Child Rights & You", CRY was started by Late Rippan Kapur, a young airline purser with the vision of an India where no child would ever have to struggle for their basic rights.With nothing but Rs.50, Rippan and six of his friends began what would go on to become an organisation that has touched the lives of millions of underprivileged children in India over the past few decades.
