At the heart of every transformative movement is a shared vision—and for us, that vision was born at Columbia University’s Graduate School of Education. We are two passionate individuals, brought together by a deep commitment to creating a more compassionate and just world. Our shared journey began with a simple yet powerful belief: real change starts at the grassroots level.

As we immersed ourselves in our studies, we came to understand that lasting transformation doesn’t stem from distant policy decisions or top-down approaches—it thrives in the hearts and hands of those who are closest to the challenges. This is where we saw the true power of community-driven action. It is the tireless efforts of individuals working within their own neighborhoods—often with limited resources but boundless dedication—that can create ripples of lasting change.

Inspired by this, we set out with a clear mission: to empower the grassroots organizations in Bombay and Delhi that are making a real impact in the lives of children and animals. These groups are the unsung heroes of social change—deeply embedded in their communities, they understand the unique challenges faced by their people and animals, and they have the local solutions to address them.

However, even with immense dedication, these organizations often lack the support needed to scale their impact. This is where we come in. By providing funding, tools, visibility, and partnerships, we are helping amplify their work, ensuring that their voices are heard and their efforts are sustained.

Together, we believe in the power of community-driven solutions and in the potential of every individual to make a difference. Our journey is just beginning, but every day, we’re closer to a future where compassion, empathy, and sustainability are the driving forces behind social change.
