Ekam Foundation Mumbai is a registered charitable trust under the Bombay Public Trust Act 1950. Since its inception in 2013, Ekam Foundation Mumbai has focused its work in the areas of child healthcare and education in underprivileged sections of the society. We work as enablers in meeting the health and education-related expenses for financially needy children. Working in partnerships with medical and educational fraternities, our mission is to provide timely and adequate support to make health and education accessible and affordable to children, all across India.
Our goal is to address tertiary healthcare objectives for neonates to adolescent children up to 18 yrs, by providing access to timely, safe and affordable treatment opportunities for saving lives.
We provide immediate financial assistance to underserved children for their elective surgeries and treatment across all medical specialities. Our objective is not only to help children survive but also thrive with better health and well-being.
We help underprivileged children access good quality education in institutions and schools that provide value-based education across the country.
The need of the hour is to improve healthcare and education. Only then can India set out to attain the global aim of the SDGs ( Sustainable Development Goals, Goal 3 and 4, UN Agenda 2030) for healthier lives, and better education and well-being of its people.
