Strong, resilient, and inclusive communities
The umbrella entity of Vedanta’s community development initiatives that creates resilient communities in India.
Our Vision
Empowering communities, transforming lives, and facilitating nation-building through sustainable and inclusive growth.
Our Mission
The Foundation will adhere at all times, to the highest ethical standards. It will constantly leverage the use of technology to maximise efficiency.
There will be a strong focus on disadvantaged women and children and the elimination of hunger, so that “no one goes hungry to bed”. Whereas healthcare, education and skill development will be the major thematic areas, the foundation will endeavor to address national and local crises as and when they occur. The implementation of projects and programmes will be driven by the need for a strong connect with grassroots communities. At the heart of the Foundation's efforts will be a deep and abiding commitment to nation building and to the upliftment of the poor and marginalised.
