In the Community projects in India

Along with Jaipur Foot, we provide assistive devices to persons with disabilities such as artificial limbs, crutches, hand-paddled tricycles, wheelchairs and hearing aids. This not only helps them regain their mobility for independent functionality, but also helps them regain their livelihoods.

In collaboration with Om Creations, we support the development of skills and the creation of livelihood opportunities for women with Down Syndrome. The aim of our efforts is to help these inspiring women reduce their medicine intake and build a revenue stream for themselves.

We have partnered with Parinaam Foundation to help graduate 450 women, belonging to the urban ultra-poor community in Bengaluru, out of poverty. With a focus on financial inclusion and livelihood development, we help the women set up and operate bank accounts, access government welfare schemes, and find gainful employment.

Many a time, youth are compelled to begin working at an early stage, to help with household finances, at the expense of their education. In collaboration with Masoom, we are supporting the operation of  night-schools and evening learning centres to encourage the working youth and adults to complete their formal education.

In many rural communities of India, families have to walk miles to fetch clean water for their daily needs. We are supporting Swades Foundation to build drinking water schemes which supply safe and potable water to rural households through tap connections in every home.

We are determined to bring timely, crucial healthcare to disadvantaged communities in India through Smile on Wheels (SOW), an initiative by Smile Foundation. We are funding seven SOW vehicles which provide basic, primary healthcare to individuals across Bengaluru, Jaipur, Mumbai and Pune. During health camps, our volunteers pitch in to help provide healthcare support to these communities.

We promote diversity, equity and inclusion within the organisation and the community in which we operate. In early 2023, we partnered with the Rotary Club of Bombay to set up Mumbai's first salon which is run by members from the LGBTQIA+ community. Each member is provided with the training required to manage the business and we continue to provide support for the operations of the salon.

We have collaborated with Sarthak Educational Trust to equip Persons with Disabilities (PwDs), from Jaipur, Mumbai and Pune, with the skills required to join the workforce. This project helps aspiring individuals find employment according to their skills and interests, primarily in the IT/ ITES, organised retail, Marketing and hospitality sectors.
