Registered in the United Kingdom, our mission is to provide health, education and community support for young people in South Asia, especially through the provision of safe water.

Our charitable objectives include giving help with Disaster Relief in the Region. To date, the Foundation has supported more than 170 charities and good causes.

Our Focus Areas

Safe Water

Providing access to clean, safe water for communities across South Asia.

Education

Supporting school building projects and educational initiatives for young people.

Healthcare

Providing health support and bringing medical professionals to the UK for training.

Disaster Relief

Rapid response to natural disasters and humanitarian crises in the region.

Our Impact

As well as funding sanitation and school building projects we have brought two Indian doctors to the UK for three month attachments at leading training hospitals.

There were generous responses to our appeals for funds for relief from:

Cyclone Sidr in Bangladesh in 2007
The Bihar floods in India in 2008
The widespread floods in Pakistan in 2010
The devastating earthquake in Nepal in 2015

It is certain that natural or man-made disasters will strike in the future and we will again play our part.
