Welcome!
Ginny’s Planet is a social enterprise. We are building a world where each child grows up believing
I have rights, respect, and choices.
I belong. I am Ok. Being Different is Ok.
In this world, no one feels odd-one-out, being different is Okay, and empathy & respect for diversity is practiced as a way of life.
We believe that disability is also a part of human diversity. We believe that everyone should have opportunities to flourish. We hope to share these beliefs with others around us, especially children.
Through our workshops, dolls, stories, gifts, and conversations, we nurture people and spaces to build an empathic and diversity-respecting world.
Ginny’s Planet got incorporated as a Private Limited Company in June 2019. We work together with Partner NGOs and ambassadors to forge the path for a world for all!
