BG Foundation

What BG Foundation does

BG Foundation is a Gurugram-based nonprofit founded in 2008 that operates three free learning centres (Tigra, Bhawani Enclave, Samaspur) delivering education, digital literacy, vocational training, and healthcare access to underprivileged children, youth, and women in Haryana, India. Its core offerings comprise four programmes: Bal Gyaan (foundational and bridge education with mid-day meals, uniforms, and stationery for 350 students), Udaan (career guidance, scholarships, and vocational training for high-school students and young adults), Digital Literacy (dedicated computer labs teaching internet safety, word processing, and digital research), and Umeed Ki Kiran (community welfare, disaster relief, and a six-day-a-week health clinic run in partnership with Sir Ganga Ram Hospital). The technology footprint is modest and operational rather than product-oriented: Razorpay-based donation processing with tiered impact amounts (₹500 for stationery, ₹1,000 for one month of education, ₹5,000 for a vocational module), QR-code donation links, an 80G tax-exemption certificate, and a Leaflet-based centre-locator map.

The organisation is governed by a board of trustees led by senior professionals (Sumer Datta, Priyanka Sharma, Amit Jain, Rema Harish) with founding member Parul Datta and member Neena Dhinda, and is executed by a 1-10 person volunteer-heavy team. Revenue is generated through individual donations via website and social media, corporate CSR partnerships with eight named sponsors (Chimes Aviation Academy, Lumax, M1 Exchange, Maitri Sanskār, Mynd Solutions, R&SA Foundation, Sunbeam), small vocational-training fees from stitching and tailoring programmes, and volunteer-driven community engagement. Marketing and fundraising rely on storytelling through alumni success stories, a blog, quarterly newsletters, and organic social channels (Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn). Cumulatively, BG Foundation reports 2,950 children enrolled since inception, 1,561 mainstreamed into formal schooling, 220 pursuing higher education, 400+ women trained in vocational skills, and 24,500+ families supported during COVID-19, though no revenue or budget figures are disclosed.
