Kinderite new logo

We've developed so many logos for ‘Kinderite’ but somehow we were not happy with any of them.  We don’t even remember where and how this thought about this new logo came about but it dawned on us like this:


The word 'Kinder' in German language means a 'Child' and phonetically 'rite' and 'right' sound the same (and they could mean two different meanings namely 'correct' and 'right of an individual respectively) so Kinderite refers to child rights.  


One arm of the check mark and the other arm of alphabet 'K' have blended to convey the message that the child and his rights are integral to his overall development and they are correct in its consideration.

Got much better idea now about adoption law in India

This entire training (Certificate course on Child Rights and Protection) time I have been searching and finding information about the laws on adoption in India. I am glad that I chose to attend this training and I have much better idea now than before. To begin with, all the adoption laws that one has to follow in India for now are in Juvenile and Justice Act, 2006 (JJA) created by the Parliament of India. We still have GAWA (Guardianship and Wards Act) and HAMA (Hindu Adoption and Maintenance Act) in the books and they are still used when necessary (in times of inter-country adoptions) and if one chooses to do under those laws. JJA is very clear and precise as to how the adoption ought to be done in terms of a child that is been relinquished or abandoned. Before I say anything, I want you to understand one term called “Child Welfare Committee” or CWC. CWC is a statutory body created in JJA with the powers of bench of magistrates with powers of a metropolitan magistrate or a judici...
