About us

Why it matters

What we're planning

None of these is open yet. Tell us if you'd like to help one happen.

All 7 plans are at Idea.

Offering to help does not open a service or make a donation.

Nothing is running yet. Updates will appear here when a service starts.

How a plan becomes real

  1. Idea

    The idea is public, so people can offer help. Nothing is promised yet.

    7 plans at this stage
  2. Being planned

    A named person owns the plan and checks what it would take to run.

  3. Approved

    The plan is approved. Any opening date is still a target.

  4. Running

    A coordinator confirms the service has started, where it runs and when it is open.

How we work

  • Help goes by need

    We decide by assessed need and the resources we have.

  • Religion is never a condition

    Nobody has to share a faith or take part in religious activity to get help.

  • Dignity, privacy and safety

    We keep help requests private, and we publish a photo only with recorded consent.

  • We promise only what we can do

    We report outcomes our records back, and we never show an idea as a running service.

  • A service starts when we can run it

    The staff, partners, premises and money to run it come first.

Questions people ask

Is the foundation religious?

No. We help people regardless of religion, caste, gender or background, and religion is never a condition of support.

How do I know my gift arrived?

Email us your transaction reference and the purpose. Once it matches our bank record, we send an acknowledgement with the amount, date, purpose and a reference number.

Do you give tax receipts?

Not at this time, so please don't give expecting a tax deduction. If that changes, we will update the donation policy and the Donate page first.

Is my request kept private?

Yes. Help requests go to a private queue for our help coordinator, and we never publish them.
