About Pratidhi
Pratidhi Welfare Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering underprivileged communities through compassionate action, sustainable development, and inclusive support. Our vision is to create a society where everyone — regardless of background or ability — has access to opportunities, dignity, and a better quality of life.
We focus on key areas such as health, environmental conservation, education, skill development and women's empowerment, with a commitment to long-term impact. Our on-ground efforts reflect our belief that meaningful change begins with awareness and grows through empathy, education, and action.
Our Vision:
Looking ahead, Pratidhi Welfare Foundation is committed to expanding its reach by working towards providing:
• Safe homes for those without secure shelter.
• Essential healthcare services for underserved and remote population.
At Pratidhi, which means “One Who Stands For Others,” we believe in being a bridge between compassion and action. Together, with our partners and community supporters, we strive to build a more inclusive, healthy, and empowered society.
We are primarily serving in Mumbai, Pune and different parts of Maharashtra, with the vision of transforming this initiative into a pan-India movement.
