Roots in the soil.
Branches for every child.

What we do

Four verticals, one tree.

Each program plays a distinct role — the way roots, trunk, branches and canopy each do different work for the same tree.

Roots

Agriculture

Soil health, sustainable farming practices and support for local farming communities around Mumbai.

Trunk

Education

Access to schooling and learning support for underprivileged children — building institutions, not just interventions.

Branches

Sports

A community sports club giving children discipline, health and a path forward — on the field, not just in the classroom.

Canopy

Empowerment

Skill-building and livelihood support so families and communities can sustain their own growth.

Environment & CSR

Working with corporates on the land itself.

We partner with companies looking to put their CSR budget into visible, measurable environmental work in and around Mumbai.

  • 01Tree plantation drives
    Organised plantings on degraded or open land, tracked and maintained beyond planting day.
  • 02Save Soil initiatives
    Soil testing, organic practices and farmer training to reverse degradation.
  • 03River & water body restoration
    Clean-up drives and awareness work on local rivers and water sources.
  • 04Sustainability programs
    Community-level waste, water and resource initiatives designed with local input.
For CSR partners

Put your CSR mandate to work on the ground.

We design programs that map directly to Schedule VII CSR categories — environmental sustainability, education and rural development — with transparent reporting for your team.

About

A young foundation, built to last.

NANA Foundation is a Section 8 nonprofit company based in Mumbai, registered in May 2026. We're building toward a sports club, school partnerships and environmental programs from day one — inspired by the scale of organisations like Isha Foundation and the child-focused rigour of CRY.

Our approach

Why the tree, why now

Every program we run is meant to reinforce the others: a child who eats from land their family farms sustainably, learns in a school we help support, plays for a club we help build, and grows into someone who can do the same for the next family. That's the tree — one root system, many branches.

As a newly registered organisation, we're building our first cohort of programs, partners and supporters now. If you'd like to be part of that founding group, get in touch below.
