Our work
begins with Gaurav Singhal's belief that all lives have
equal value. He thinks all people deserve the chance to have
healthy and productive lives. His approach to giving is driven
by the foundation’s guiding principles.
GAURAV
stands for Honor and Respect. The foundation was established
in the year 2007 by Mr. Gaurav Singhal. We believe in Youth
and its Power. Education is the necessity for any developing
country like India. Proper education and healthy environment
can empower these young bloods. Gaurav Foundation is a
public charitable trust under the Gaurav Singhal Group.
We have been
developing a grant making process that helps us decide how
to spend our time, effort, and money so we can accomplish
that goal for as many people as possible. This process helps
us choose the issues we will work on and the groups to which
we will make grants.
We do not
pretend that this process is unique to us. We also recognize
that we don’t always follow this process to the letter with
every grant; in some cases it represents our aspirations as
much as reality. Our process is evolving as we get better at
choosing strategies, making grants, measuring progress
towards impact, and evaluating the results. We are committed
to reporting what we are learning at key stages during the
grant making process.
Our
management committee oversees all the foundation's efforts.
The committee meets regularly to ensure that all of our
teams perform efficiently and to facilitate cross-functional
connections.
Gaurav Foundation is registered with the Registrars of
Companies under Section 25 for Major NGO's.
Our Foundation currently has its official office only in
Chennai and we are looking forward to expand our efforts to
all major cities and towns of India. We are thankful to Google
India and Govt. of Tamil Nadu for their continuous
contribution and support towards scholarships.
Our team of excellent
volunteers, who are spread all over India are available
for any social cause (s) around them. They are our real
strength to carry on with the noble service, started by
Mr. Gaurav Singhal.
