About Circle of Good
A community-driven foundation working alongside practitioners and communities to design and deliver change that endures.
We focus on fewer initiatives, commit deeply, and build systems that endure.
We are building Circle of Good as a community-driven foundation that works alongside practitioners, local organisations, and contributors to design and deliver interventions that are structured, accountable, and grounded in real-world conditions.
Every program emerges from deep collaboration, not prescription. We believe in long-term orientation over short-term visibility, creating change that endures well beyond our direct involvement.
A note from the two of us.
Everyone deserves a fair start.
Circle of Good is a nonprofit working on the ground to fight malnourishment and build access to education and healthcare for the communities that need it most.
We are in Roha and Karasgaon right now, working with local social workers to reach children who are not getting the nutrition they need.
It costs just over ₹200 a month to help one child recover. Just over ₹200.
In 2026, children are still going hungry and dying of hunger. That is not okay, and we are not okay sitting with that.
So we started Circle of Good. To show up, do the work, and make it easier for you to be a part of it too.
Volunteer. Donate. Share. Or just follow along as we build this.
Welcome to the Circle.

Our non-negotiables.
Four commitments shape every programme we run, from the first conversation to the systems we leave behind.
Dignity first
Respect over narratives. We never exploit stories of hardship for fundraising. Communities are partners with agency, not subjects to be saved.
Collaboration over charity
Every programme is co-designed with the communities who know their needs best. We facilitate, they lead, and the work reflects local priorities and existing strengths.
Fewer things, done deeply
Depth over visibility. We resist spreading thin, commit to a small number of places, and stay long enough to build systems that keep working without us.
Measured and accountable
Every rupee tracked, every outcome measured. We publish what we spend and keep open records, because trust is earned through transparency.
Registered, compliant, and on record.
Circle of Good Foundation is a Section 8 non-profit registered in India, with 80G, 12A and CSR-1 registrations in place and records open on request. Every registration number is published on where your money goes, and companies can open the CSR readiness pack.
