Inadequate safe drinking water is a devastating problem in India with cascading impacts across hunger, health, gender equity, education, livelihoods, sustainability, and ecosystems. A staggering 700 million people lack access to safe drinking water in India. Most rural families are unaware that the water they consume is contaminated, leading to several water-borne illnesses. Community Pure Water (CPW) builds sustainable water purification centers (WPCs) that purify locally available water, eliminating 99% of chemical and biological contaminants.

Working together, using our combined philanthropic reach and innovative ideas, we can help India in far greater ways than each of us could accomplish working on our own. The time is right for building a more robust culture of philanthropy among Indian-Americans and I am positive that our efforts will help accelerate social progress in India.” —Deepak Raj Chair of the Board of India Philanthropy Alliance</image:caption>

      <image:title>IPA Newsletters - India Giving Day News: We are thrilled to announce that 51 organizations will be participating in India Giving Day 2026 through our online giving platform. Enhancements to the platform make it easier to search for organizations based on the causes they represent and leave you one click away from learning more from those who work in sectors such as education, health care, environmental protection, and animal welfare.

      <image:title>IPA Newsletters - Young People Who Inspire Confidence in the Philanthropy of Tomorrow Srila Gangalakunta, a Senior in High School and member of India Giving Day's Youth Leadership Council, learned about Vicente Ferrer Foundation (VFF) when her grandfather was suffering from COVID in India. Her father went to India to stay with her grandfather and spoke highly of the care he received at a hospital that was supported by VFF in India. Her appreciation of the care her grandfather received inspired Srila to look more deeply into the work of VFF. This led to her learning about the breadth of their programs spanning education, health care, women's empowerment, and more. Soon after she made contact with Ushree Roy, Senior Director of VFF USA, and began what has become a five year journey of volunteering for and fundraising for VFF, a nonprofit she feels passionately about. Her commitment to support VFF has produced extraordinary results. During India Giving Day 2025 Srila raised $3,565 from 173 unique donors by contacting family, friends, local businesses, and even people she didn't know.  Srila is working with VFF for India Giving Day 2026 to expand their youth engagement throughout the country and host a benefit concert in Dallas on India Giving Day.</image:title>

Their flagship initiative, the Annual Status of Education Report (ASER), has served as a wake-up call to the nation since 2005. In 2018, their extensive research revealed a sobering truth: despite almost universal enrollment, foundational learning levels were alarmingly low. In response, Pratham developed Teaching at the Right Level (TaRL). Rather than emphasizing age or grade, this approach prioritizes the child’s current learning level. Children are grouped based on their abilities, so the instruction they receive is tailored to their needs. Among their key initiatives are operations to rescue child laborers and prevent child trafficking.

      <image:caption>My family and I visit our grandparents in rural Kerala every summer. Each time, I wonder what we’d do if a family member—especially a grandparent—had a medical emergency. The opportunity to supplement what I witnessed and heard [in Kerala] through research and academic writing was empowering. While I learned that a national healthcare crisis plagued India, it was reassuring to know that a combined effort of the public and private sector could very well provide a solution.

      <image:caption>“We’re excited about this effort to join forces as an alliance committed to the ideal of making a collective impact.  Working together, using our combined philanthropic reach and innovative ideas, we can help India in far greater ways than each of us could accomplish working on our own. The time is right for building a more robust culture of philanthropy among Indian-Americans and I am positive that our efforts will help accelerate social progress in India.” —Deepak Raj Chair of the Board of India Philanthropy Alliance</image:caption>

      <image:title>2025 Essay Winners Announced - Aneesh Gupta, India’s Invisible Children and the Fight for Recognition High School Winner, Grade 11,, Carmel, Indiana</image:title>
      <image:caption>“Making sure that a child's birth is registered might not seem like a big deal, but it is actually one of the most transformative acts that you can do to ensure a child's future. Identity is more than just paperwork; it's access, safety, and a sense of dignity as well. One of the reasons I wrote my essay was as a call to action to make sure that every child is counted, because every child counts.” Aneesh will be gifting his $1,000 award to CRY America.

      <image:title>2025 Essay Winners Announced - Eesha Kondapalli, A Cry in Hyderabad: India’s Rabies Epidemic Middle School Winner, Grade 7, Cary, North Carolina</image:title>
      <image:caption>I entered IPA’s Youth Essay Competition because of my deep passion for writing. Writing has always been my way of expression - especially on issues I care about. When most people think of pressing developmental issues in India, issues such as poverty and illiteracy come to mind. Although those issues are very important, not every single Indian has faced them. With India's stray dog population of nearly 60 million dogs and the associated Rabies problem, it's impossible not to be affected by them, no matter where in India you are. Eesha will be gifting her $1,000 award to Stray Animal Foundation of India. Read her essay here.</image:caption>

      <image:title>2025 Essay Winners Announced - Aneesh Agarwal,, India’s Overlooked Literacy Crisis High School Runner-Up, Grade 10, Portland, Oregon</image:title>
      <image:caption>“The most striking thing I found when doing my research was how important English proficiency is in the corporate world. For example, only 7% of Indian Engineering graduates are employable in global jobs due to a lack of English proficiency. That is a huge economic shortfall for India. As a community, we should work on this so that people can find jobs outside of India and India’s cultural heritage can spread beyond India’s borders.” Aneesh will be gifting his $500 award to AID India.

      <image:title>2025 Essay Winners Announced - Swasti Timande, India’s Hidden Food Security Challenge Middle School Runner-Up, Grade 6, Columbus, Indiana</image:title>
      <image:caption>“Last year, when I went to India and my parents took me to the market, my jaw dropped when I saw huge piles of vegetables and fruits rotting! From watching the news with my parents, I knew that in the monsoon, lots of produce was wasted from a lack of storage. Seeing usable produce wasted was something I’ll never forget, especially since it affected 190 million undernourished Indians.” Swasti will be gifting her $500 award to Save Indian Farmers.

      <image:title>2025 Essay Winners Announced - Vishnu Teja Donadula, The Sad Plight of the Indian Farmer High School Finalist, Grade 10, Plano, Texas</image:title>
      <image:caption>“Indian farmers are the backbone of the nation and deserve more for their tireless work in helping feed the world's most populous country. They sow seeds yet reap injustice for their harvests. It is crucial that we address this developmental problem by guaranteeing farmers a price for their produce and ending the exploitation of them before it starts to significantly affect the food security of the nation."
