Education, healthcare,

Building the capacities
that India needs most.
In a country where the basic needs of millions go unmet, it is incumbent
on those with means to elevate the living conditions of the most
under-served sections of society. The Sekhsaria family has a long
history of philanthropic initiatives that build capabilities of youth and the
capacities of those from disadvantaged areas.
Narotam Sekhsaria Foundation
Established in 2002 with an endowment from Mr. Sekhsaria,
The Narotam Sekhsaria Foundation enables non-profit
organisations and social entrepreneurs to make a positive,
lasting and sustainable impact on society. Inspired by the
vision of a socially, culturally and economically vibrant India,
the foundation strives to accelerate change by supporting
committed individuals and organisations in sectors such as
health, education, livelihoods, governance and civic issues,
art and culture and youth and urbanisation.
Salaam Bombay Foundation
Established in 2002, The Salaam Bombay Foundation (SBF)
supports disadvantaged children who face the risk
of child labour and tobacco abuse, by engaging them in
school leadership, sports, arts and media programmes.
SBF’s programmes instil self-confidence, sow the seeds of
ambition, and inspire children to stay in school.
The foundation’s advocacy initiatives help them lead
tobacco-free lives, and transform them into agents of change.
While its vocational skills programmes prepare older teens
for sustainable careers. SBF has collaborated with the
Harvard School of Public Health, received grants from the
Gates Foundation and the Bloomberg Family Foundation,
among others.
Ambuja Cement Foundation
Established in 1993, Ambuja Cement Foundation (ACF) is a
grassroots,
pan-India implementing organisation that harnesses
the power of partnerships between communities, government,
like-minded corporates and NGOs. Our aim is to solve
problems and
foster prosperity in rural communities across
India.
For almost three decades, ACF has created significant,
demonstrable impact. Our Research and Monitoring Unit,
and numerous external, independent studies show
significant change in income levels, health indicators
and
overall harmony in the areas where we work.
Today, our impact is felt well beyond our core villages.
By working hand-in-hand with like-minded organisations,
we aim to significantly grow the impact we create on
the
issues that most inhibit India’s development.
