CSR & Impact Programmes

Our CSR programmes are built around clearly identified community needs and measurable outcomes. We work with corporate partners to plan, implement and monitor programmes across education, healthcare, environment, women’s livelihoods and community development.

From converting plastic waste into school furniture to improving vision, healthcare access and school infrastructure, our CSR partnerships aim to create impact that communities can see and experience.

Women’s Skill Development & Livelihoods

S&P Global

From skills to sustainable livelihoods.

Economic empowerment begins with opportunity. Upkriti's women empowerment programmes focus on giving women practical skills that can be converted into income and greater financial independence.

Through CSR partnerships, we conduct skill-development programmes including tailoring and other livelihood-oriented training. The support can extend beyond training through equipment, mentoring and opportunities for women to put their skills into practice.

One such initiative with S&P Global supports women across Karnataka with tailoring machines, helping trained women move from learning a skill to creating an income opportunity from home.

Impact at a glance

400+ women trained
25+ micro-entrepreneurs supported

One of the outcomes has been the transition of women from homemakers to home-based entrepreneurs, with beneficiaries earning through tailoring work.

From skill development to self-reliance, the goal is to ensure that training creates an opportunity, not just a certificate.

Eye Health & Vision Care

Undiagnosed vision problems can affect a child's education, an adult's livelihood and an entire family's quality of life. For underserved communities, accessing regular eye care can be difficult.

Recycled Desks & Benches

What begins as discarded plastic can become something valuable for a child, a desk, a bench and a better place to learn.

School Renovation & Infrastructure

For children, a safe and functional school is the foundation for learning. Yet many government schools continue to operate with ageing infrastructure and facilities that need repair or improvement.

Gender Equality & Awareness

Gender equality begins with awareness. Our gender equality programmes create spaces for students and young people to discuss gender roles, stereotypes, equal opportunities, respect and inclusion.

Children & Student Welfare

Education is not limited to textbooks and examinations. Children also need opportunities to play, create, explore, stay healthy and develop confidence.

Health & Medical Assistance

For people living in remote areas, accessing regular healthcare can mean travelling long distances. This becomes particularly difficult for patients who require recurring treatments such as dialysis.
