Anahita Khanna Foundation – Anahita Khanna Foundation

We are a Chandigarh based foundation with a pan-India presence. Our priority is to support a plethora of social and humanitarian causes that require citizen involvement either by providing the necessary material aid or by curating and facilitating special projects to reach out to those in need. Our key focus areas are women empowerment and breaking social taboos through meticulous and professional programs in the field of menstrual hygiene management, outreach programs to express our gratitude to the armed forces and improving the quality of the life for the increasing population of the disadvantaged elderly.

The young and dynamic Anahita Khanna , a Chandigarh girl and a student of Jai Hind College, Mumbai , grew up in a family where non-profit leadership and volunteerism were a part of her daily life .Imbued with a sense of responsibility , Anahita decided to step out of the cocoon of her comfort zone to infuse fresh dynamism into those causes that she truly believed in .

Deeply influenced by great thinkers and philosophers, the one quote that she closely relates to her life is “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.”

Anahita was always an academic achiever who has been involved in assisting her father in his business. Her keen business acumen, high emotional quotient and unparalled ingenuity at strategizing sound methodologies for ensuring the highest standards, earned her the reputation of being a leader who her peer group and subordinates looked upto.

Our work began in 1991 distributing Bibles across Eastern
Europe. Almost immediately, God opened the doors to share!

I am hugely impressed with the zeal Anahita has to serve the community at such a young age. She has the urge to make a difference in the lives of those who are not as privileged as her. The idea of giving back to the society has struck her early in her life when most of those her age are busy in making a career and service to the society is the last thing on their minds. Anahita, through her Foundation, has associated with us at Rotary Club Chandigarh to contribute in different projects. I wish her more power to give.

I was diagnosed with complete renal failure by the doctors in my hometown, Nepal. This is when I came to Chandigarh for my treatment and was introduced to AKF by my employer. I am extremely grateful to the foundation for their support through my dialysis and kidney transplant. The Foundation also helped me get an immediate transplant which otherwise could have taken months of waiting. Their constant followups with my health, have helped me in my recovery for which I am very thankful to the Anahita and her family.
