Sawan Public School, Delhi
Established in 1974, the Foundation, one of the most respected charitable organizations in Bangalore promoted a residential school called 'Sawan Public School' at Chattarpur Road, Delhi, on a 20 acre prime land with substantial investment. This school was meant for the students coming from economically weaker sections of the society, but owing to its high academic standards, the children from wealthier sections were attracted resulting in great demand and pressure for securing admissions. In 1993, the School then valued at Rs. 100 crores, but was donated to Bhartiya Vidya Bhavan so that the Foundation could expand its horizons by establishing more institutions and initiate other charitable activities towards social upliftment. It is now being taken back from Bhartiya Vidya Bhavan due to their mismanagement.
Jindal Pre-University College (JPUC)
The Foundation observed that poor rural girl students from more than 100 villages surrounding Jindal Nagar were deprived of collegiate education as there were no colleges nearby. JPUC, was established in 2003 by SJF, an NGO for education with the objective of providing quality higher secondary education to rural girls. Around 380 girl students are undergoing courses in Commerce, IT & Science. During 2010-11, the pass percentage was 98% and over 88% of students got either distinction or first class. The College has an excellent library, well equipped laboratories and sports facilities.

The Foundation believes that by spreading education amongst women, not only the family gets benefits, but the entire society gets enriched which in turn leads to building a strong nation. Further, the high cost of higher education also acts as a road block for the poor and deserving girl students. This was the motive behind setting up Jindal Pre-University College and Jindal Degree College for Women.
