At Unnati Foundation, we believe that individuals and communities hold powerful ideas that can spark real transformation. As a non-profit organization, our mission is to empower people, uplift communities, and nurture businesses that create lasting social and economic impact. We are committed to building a more inclusive and self-reliant society—one where dreams are not limited by background, and success is a shared journey.
Empowering ideas, building futures, supporting businesses to achieve scale and success with our tailored solutions. This belief lies at the heart of everything we do. We stand beside aspiring entrepreneurs, community leaders, and grassroots innovators, offering them the tools, knowledge, and mentorship they need to build ventures that matter.
At Unnati, we understand that sustainable development begins when people are given the opportunity to lead their own growth. Whether it’s a woman starting a micro-enterprise in a rural village or a youth-led startup in a small town, we provide the support that transforms raw ideas into viable, scalable, and impactful ventures.
Our programs are designed not just to launch initiatives, but to nurture them to full potential. We work across sectors and geographies to help people overcome barriers, access resources, and take control of their economic journey. From capacity building and training to funding facilitation and market linkages—we walk the path with our beneficiaries, every step of the way.
Our model is grounded in grassroots engagement, practical problem-solving, and long-term partnership. We don’t apply one-size-fits-all strategies. Instead, we listen first, co-create solutions with communities, and build systems that reflect local needs and aspirations.
Our approach includes:
Sustaining: Supporting businesses with customized growth strategies, access to finance, technology integration, legal support, and market expansion tools. We help them scale sustainably.
Since our inception, Unnati Foundation has helped individuals and groups turn their ideas into tangible enterprises. These include small-scale manufacturers, rural service providers, agricultural innovators, craft-based entrepreneurs, and youth-led ventures. Many of these businesses have not only generated livelihoods but have become sources of local pride and inspiration.
Our initiatives have helped reduce rural-to-urban migration, encouraged local employment, promoted women’s entrepreneurship, and fostered social leadership in underserved communities.
Our strength lies in our people. The Unnati Foundation team is a vibrant mix of social development professionals, business mentors, educators, field coordinators, and volunteers. With expertise across domains—from community mobilization and financial literacy to enterprise development and digital transformation—we bring a well-rounded perspective to every project we undertake.
We also partner with government agencies, corporations, incubators, and academic institutions to amplify our impact and ensure our programs remain relevant and robust.
Unnati Foundation is more than an NGO—it’s a movement of changemakers who believe in the power of people to uplift themselves and each other. If you are someone who believes in fostering entrepreneurship for inclusive development, we invite you to be a part of our journey.
Whether as a volunteer, donor, collaborator, or advocate—your support can help fuel the next wave of grassroots innovation. Together, we can empower ideas, build stronger futures, and scale businesses that uplift society.
