Nav Srishti

What Nav Srishti does

Nav Srishti is a non-governmental organization registered under the Societies Registration Act, 1860 in New Delhi, India, focused on the welfare of women and children in marginalized urban communities. Founded on August 3, 1994 by Reena Banerjee, the organization operates programs across six thematic areas: Health & WASH, Education, Women Empowerment, Child Rights, Livelihood & Skills Development, and Disaster Response. Direct beneficiaries are served through community-based infrastructure including six crèches, Child Activity Centres, Family Counselling Centres, mobile health units for transport workers, and vocational training centres across Delhi NCR (covering Neb Sarai, Jahangirpuri, Holambi Kalan, Sultanpuri, Bawana, Sangam Vihar, Faridabad, Gurugram, and Ghaziabad) plus Jodhpur in Rajasthan.

The organization runs programs such as Apollo Tyres Health Care Express (reaching 100,000 transport workers), Family Counselling Centres under the Central Social Welfare Board, Saksham skills development for 12,000+ adolescent girls, ChildLine 1098 in Faridabad, and the Missing Children Campaign that has recovered over 200 children through community vigilance groups coordinated with police platforms ZIPNET and Khoya-Paya. Underlying program technology is primarily grassroots: digital learning centres provide computer-based education support; community vigilance and whistleblower networks use coordination with government platforms; and the Missing Children tracking relies on community mobilization rather than proprietary software.

Revenue is sourced from four streams: corporate CSR funding (Apollo Tyres Foundation, Honda, ONGC, Oracle, NABARD, Artemis, Azim Premji Philanthropic Initiatives), international and national NGO grants (Plan India, CRY, Save the Children, Aga Khan Foundation), individual donations (with monthly giving tiers of INR 300-500 per beneficiary), and FCRA-registered foreign contributions. Go-to-market is community-led, channel-partner-driven, and event-driven through rallies, street theatre, and awareness campaigns. Customer segments are beneficiaries (children aged 6 months-18 years, women facing domestic violence, adolescent girls and young women aged 12-25, transport workers, and war widows) rather than paying customers, as services are delivered free of charge funded by donor support.
