🧡 About Us – Path Foundation

The Path Foundation is a registered charitable organization that has been working for the people of Odisha for the last 7+ years. 1992 S.K.S. Established by alumni of high school, Nimkhandi, our journey began with a shared dream - to bring light, care and dignity to the life of the underprivileged.

From the very beginning, we have focused on solving some of the most pressure challenges faced by weaker communities in Odisha - access to education, healthcare, cancer aid and women empowerment.

Join us on this journey to transform lives, foster hope, and build stronger communities—one step at a time.

Community Empowerment

🎯 Our vision

To build an inclusive society, where every child learns, every woman leads, and every person lives with dignity and good health. At Path Foundation, we envision a world where inclusion is not just an idea — it's a lived reality. Our mission is rooted in the belief that every child deserves the right to learn, every woman has the potential to lead, and every individual should live with dignity and good health, regardless of their background or circumstances.
📚 Every Child Learns We strive to eliminate barriers to education for children from marginalized communities. Whether it’s providing school supplies, setting up learning centers in underserved areas, or offering after-school support, we are committed to ensuring that no child is left behind. Education is the key to breaking the cycle of poverty, and we work relentlessly to unlock that key for every child.

Sustainability Focus

🌱 Our Mission

At Path Foundation, our mission is to ignite hope and foster long-term change by working hand-in-hand with communities across Odisha. We are committed to:

Empowering women with skills, knowledge, and confidence to lead independent and dignified lives, becoming changemakers within their homes and communities.
Supporting cancer patients through compassionate care, emotional support, and access to treatment and counseling, ensuring no one faces their battle alone.
Uplifting deprived families through sustainable, community-led development — from livelihood programs to healthcare awareness — so they can build a better future with dignity.

Unique Approach

❤ Our basic value

  • Compassion:Every action we take is rooted in genuine care and empathy. We believe that meaningful change begins with the heart — by standing beside those in need with kindness, understanding, and respect.
  • Transparency: We are committed to honesty and accountability. From how we use donations to how we report our impact, we ensure that every rupee is accounted for and every stakeholder is informed.
  • Community-Led Change: We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. That’s why we empower local communities to lead their own transformation. We listen, support, and walk alongside them as they build the future they envision.
  • Equality: We believe in equal opportunity for all — regardless of caste, gender, income, or background. Inclusion is at the core of our mission, and we work every day to dismantle barriers to fairness and dignity.
