Why partner with us

We are a registered US non-profit (501(c)(3), EIN 47-3774368) operating programs in India. Grant-makers and CSR teams choose us because we combine a clear model, measurable outcomes and disciplined stewardship.

  • A focused model. We remove the barriers — money, distance and belief — that keep girls out of school and women out of work.
  • Measurable outcomes. Scholarships, skills, health and livelihood programs with trackable numbers and stories.
  • Strong stewardship. A founder member covers our overheads, so your grant goes to programs — you receive regular updates and reporting.
  • Proven track record. Support from individuals, foundations and corporate volunteers since 2011.

Verified & Recognized

'Verified & Recognized' is where independent nonprofit watchdogs confirm what we claim. Candid, Charity Navigator and GreatNonprofits each check something different — transparency, financial health, and first-hand reviews — giving donors outside proof that Sneha Karma Foundation is accountable and effective. Each seal and listing reflects information we publish openly for anyone to inspect.

Candid (GuideStar)

Candid, formed by the merger of GuideStar and the Foundation Center, runs the world's largest database of nonprofit information. Its transparency seals show how openly an organisation publishes its mission, finances and governance. Sneha Karma Foundation has been a Candid/GuideStar member since 2015 and holds the Platinum transparency seal.
