About Us - Kanoria Chemicals

KCI's policies have consistently emphasised socially useful investment. These have evolved on the dictates of the heart rather than the mind. Much before the term 'Corporate Social Responsibility' was coined, KCI has been giving back to society as it has grown.

Most of our activities are carried out by the Sambhava foundation, our corporate group's centralized arm for social development programmes. The foundation focusses on education and skill development, particularly for women. Nonetheless, every company within the group has its own small portfolio of ways in which we give back.

Sambhava Foundation's Initiatives

Hunar: Empowering Women Through Skills - Enables women of ages 18 to 35 coming from disadvantaged backgrounds, to gain economic independence, by skilling them and thereafter providing placement support.

Hunar: Social Entrepreneurship Programme - Helps underprivileged women set up their own profitable, sustainable and scalable small social enterprise. This project has helped 10 girls in a period of two years to set up four boutiques at different locations in Delhi.
