What Chairman Say
“I am very happy to introduce you and welcome you to our NGO “HWA Charitable Foundation” on behalf of my colleagues at HWA. Having got an opportunity to live and work for many years in Bangalore which is one of the fastest growing cities of India, we happened to come across many people who are very well off and living in posh bungalows and apartments and on other side many other people who are forced to the live in slum pockets under extremely poor living conditions with not even a proper roof above them to sleep, basic sanitary amenities, privilege to have basic education for their kids or health services. A strong desire to uplift these under-privileged part of the society by empowering them to achieve development has been the main drive force for the formation of HWA. We plan to focus on empowerment of women and children irrespective who could be the driving force to uplift a family from such conditions to a better place for them in the society in future by a holistic and systematic approach of development through our Udhbav project.
I would once again welcome you to be part of HWA family and be a ray of hope to the underprivileged ones around us.”
