The RPG Foundation Drives Innovative Solutions for India's Social Problems
The Foundation is a Public Charitable Trust registered under the Bombay Public Trust Act, 1950. The Foundation gears and drives the social impact initiatives of RPG Group companies, which include CEAT, Zensar, KEC International, Raychem RPG, RPG Life Sciences, and Spencer International Hotels. This centralisation has helped the Foundation focus on critical issues, create a deeper impact and effect large-scale change.
The Foundation enables programmes in education, employability, community development and heritage. The Foundation runs on a simple ideology, “Everyone has a responsibility and a role in building an equitable society. We can succeed and make a real impact only when we act together.”
"At RPG Foundation, we drive innovative solutions for India’s social problems.
We leverage the strengths of our donor organisations and scale our projects by collaborating with large-scale institutions and the government. We focus on transforming people, places and communities through meaningful interventions in education, women empowerment and heritage revival."
