Building Real Change, One Life at a Time

From Serving Meals to Creating Meaningful Support Systems

Yashr Foundation began with a simple act of compassion — delivering warm meals to orphanages in Pune. But what started as nourishment of the body soon grew into nourishment of the soul. Today, we operate as a comprehensive NGO dedicated to addressing the practical challenges of underprivileged families across healthcare, education, livelihood, and shelter. Our programs are designed not as short-term fixes, but as stepping stones to long-term stability. Whether it’s helping a mother start a tiffin service from home, assisting a child with school admissions, or providing emergency aid during a health crisis, our focus remains on action that uplifts with dignity. Each initiative is guided by real stories, real needs, and real outcomes.

Our Impact

Real Support. Visible Change.

Through thoughtful interventions and consistent on-ground action, we’ve supported thousands across underserved communities with education, healthcare, livelihood, and daily essentials. Every initiative is rooted in compassion, tracked for transparency, and designed to leave a meaningful footprint.

Meet the Person Who Sparked the Movement

The founder of Yashr Foundation brings both grassroots insight and strategic vision to the organization. With a background in food services and a deep personal connection to community upliftment, he turned a local catering effort into a large-scale social initiative. Alongside him, Darshana Ma’am plays a pivotal role in executing projects on-ground with empathy and rigor.

TESTIMONIALS

What people say about us

"I still remember the first day I walked into their center. I was nervous, unsure of myself, and honestly, I didn’t know what to expect. As a single mother, struggling to make ends meet, I was desperate to find a way to earn from home while taking care of my young children. The team welcomed me with warmth that immediately put me at ease. They didn’t just offer me a course; they offered me a new direction in life."

Neha Sharma Donor

"I’ve been farming for over a decade, but truthfully, I was stuck in outdated practices. My yields were dropping, pests were destroying my crops, and I felt helpless. I couldn’t afford expensive consultations, and many schemes felt out of reach. Then someone from the NGO visited our village. I thought it would be another talk with no action, but I was wrong."

Rahul Verma Donor

"Volunteering with this NGO has been one of the most fulfilling experiences of my life. Initially, I joined just to give back to the community in my free time. Little did I know, it would transform the way I view life and service."

Priya Sethi Donor

"When my family lost our home due to a sudden fire, we were devastated. Everything we owned was gone in minutes. In our darkest moment, this NGO came as a ray of light. They didn’t just provide us with temporary shelter; they ensured we felt safe and supported."

Sunita Patil Donor

"I run a small tea stall near Pune, and before meeting this incredible team, I never thought my business could be anything more than just hand-to-mouth survival. I had dreams of expanding, maybe offering snacks, or even setting up a proper sitting area, but I didn’t have the funds or the knowledge of how to get there.
