Snehanjana Trust was initiated in 2024 when a group of friends came together with the intention of giving back to the society. They were inspired by the thought and philosophy of Peter Senge, the founder of the Society for Organizational Learning who has propagated that “sustainability, social equality and the environment are now business problems…” and corporate leaders can’t expect governments to solve them alone.
Established in 2024, Snehanjana Trust is an Indian development organization, impacting the lives of over 5 thousands children and their families every year. We have more than 20 projects on education, healthcare, livelihood, and women empowerment in over 32 remote villages and urban slums across 2 states of India.
What triggered these thoughts was the liberalisation of the Indian economy in the 1990’s which brought with it immense opportunities. Business revived, and India became not just a market, but also an investment prospect for the developed world. Disposable incomes and early settlements became a living reality for the working middle-class. For the first time in India, professionals could think beyond making a living, and contribute towards the society.
Snehanjana Trust works as a catalyst in the cycle of change, complementing and supplementing government efforts (view details) to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. We sensitize and partner with like-minded institutions and individuals to implement high-impact programmes that enable access, enhance quality and help bring long term behavioural change at the grassroots.
