Ekam Foundation Mumbai is a registered Charitable Trust committed to positively impacting the lives of underprivileged children in India. With our humble beginning in 2012 in a library hall at a children’s hospital, we have steered through the challenges of the pandemic to build our programs and our presence as a credible organization in helping the underserved. Supporting the goals of the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals 2030), we have created impactful milestones in transforming the lives of children and young adults and empowering them with better health and education. A focused child-centric approach to bridge the gap in affordability and access to healthcare and education needs of our beneficiaries has helped in building a sustainable organization upholding values of compassion, transparency, integrity, and accountability while observing the highest levels of compliance and corporate governance.
