About Us - Lalit Foundation

Lalit Foundation was established in the year 2008 under the flagship of Lalit Group of Companies, led by the Founders, Shri. Zoher M. Diler and Shri. Salim M. Diler. Lalit Foundation Trust is a registered under the Bombay Public Trust Act, 1950 and Societies Registration Act, 1860 in Mumbai. The Founders observed that a particular section of the society mainly, the visually impaired/challenged and physically disabled, are deprived of their basic essential needs i.e. food and clothing, hence children of such families, especially the girl child are not provided with basic education. Meagre earnings of such families is generally washed away in health care and other unavoidable expenses , leaving them with minimal or sometimes no resources for survival. Many a times humans with proper eyesight, face struggles for their basic needs, and for these visually impaired basic survival is a challenge. Hence the trust initiated the activities like distribution of monthly ration to families on every 4th Saturday of the month.

The visionaries of the Trust thought that merely by providing ration does not solve the problem, hence they took a leap of faith and initiated programs where the visually impaired could get employments opportunities. Secondly with the emergence of modernization and nuclear families, individuals or younger generation generally feel it’s a burden to take care of their aging parents, it more of a liability rather than a responsibility to take care of their parents. The number of old age homes are increasing and the Founders decided to provide assistance by supplying snacks to old age home and facilitated installation of solar panels for water heating. They personally visit with their families and spend time with them during occasions. Education scholarships and financial assistance is provided deserving candidates. Medical assistance is also provided to the economically weaker sections after due verification.

Those who are happiest are those who do the most for others. Help others without any reason and give without the expectation of receiving anything in return. Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth.

You have never really lived until you have done something for someone who can never repay you.
