About DLF Foundation
DLF Foundation was established in 2008 as the philanthropic arm of the DLF Group. The DLF Foundation's vision is to transform communities we work with through high-impact interventions in spheres of education, healthcare and social sustainability with the resolve of enabling a better quality of life backed by sustainable ecosystems for all stakeholders within the immediate and extended communities.
We accomplish this through the creation of customized programmes and innovative institutions that address India’s current development challenges and by providing a platform for the foundation to collaborate with other institutions, professionals and subject matter experts to deliver sustained, magnified impact across communities of interest.
Education: DLF Foundation is committed to driving excellence along with inclusivity in education, helping shape the next generation of India. DLF Foundation’s flagship education programme 'DLF CARES' was established with the premise that every child has the right to quality education and the primary objective is to nurture and handhold them to realise their potential and become productive and responsible citizens of tomorrow.
In addition to academics, DLF Foundation also believes in nurturing the leaders of tomorrow in the field of sports. In line with this vision, the Foundation set up the Golf Excellence Program in partnership with DLF Golf Academy in 2017 to encourage the next generation of golf champions in India.
Social Sustainability: DLF Foundation understands that community development does not happen in a vacuum and ensuring sustainable ecosystems are created is a crucial social commitment that impacts our development as a society.
Keeping this in mind, we work towards the goal of sustainable cities, prioritising a sustainable environment for the larger public good.
Additionally, in times of crisis, DLF Foundation has always stepped up to assist affected communities. During the first wave of COVID-19 in 2020, DLF Foundation distributed over 64 lakh meals to those in need.
In the past, DLF Foundation has also significantly contributed to disaster relief for marginalised communities impacted by devastating natural disasters.
Healthcare: Healthcare is a crucial area of intervention for the DLF Foundation both through on-ground initiatives as well as in partnership with healthcare organisations and hospitals.
DLF Foundation’s commitment to healthcare also extends to animal welfare with our partnership with CGS Hospital, providing free healthcare to street animals and through community outreach programs.
Awards and Recognitions: DLF Foundation has been acknowledged nationally and internationally for its work in the social sector. From appreciation and citations from government bodies to various CSR awards and trophies, we have been honoured for our work on multiple platforms.
