Our Vision and Mission

Since its formation, Padma Bhushan Dr. Sitaram Jindal has been nurturing this Foundation like a baby, discharging his moral and social responsibilities as Patron in the true spirit of the words of Mahatma Gandhi. By dint of hard work, unshakeable commitment and love for humanity, the Foundation has steadfastly pursued its avowed objectives and has moved forward in leaps and bounds in fulfilling the aims for which the Foundation was originally set up. Believing in the adage "every single paisa of the Foundation is God's money" Dr. Jindal has been taking utmost care in ensuring that maximum benefit is given to the deserving mankind/institutions, while maintaining absolute simplicity without any pomp and show. Jindal Aluminium Limited (JAL), of which Dr. Jindal is the sole Founder, Chairman and Managing Director, has been contributing substantially to the Foundation for discharging its social responsibilities towards the society at large. In the process, JAL, SJF as well as various other related Societies / Trusts / Institutions are running hospitals/ schools, vocational training centres, mobile dispensaries, awarding scholarships to poor students and donations to other charitable institutions.

All donations / scholarships are given without any discrimination of colour, caste or creed.
