Empowering individuals, transforming communities

Committed to the cause of community-building and social responsibility, Nishant Group views its contribution to social, environmental and health-care initiatives as an investment in the nation’s future. As a socially-conscious organisation, the Group is dedicated to the cause of health and education, and aligned with programmes to help underserved women, children and the aged. Be it organizing health camps to treat vision-impairment or supporting social improvement programs through Tribal Integrated Development and Education Trust (TIDE), social service is embedded in the ethos of Nishant Group.

Health-care

The Group has been actively involved with healthcare interventions in Mumbai, where its parent company Avighna Group has a solid presence. From providing financial assistance to needy patients and organising health camps for vaccinations, to setting up eye camps for treatment of preventable blindness through cataract surgery, the Group’s association goes beyond funding and facilitation. Chairman Kailash Agarwal’s generous contribution for renovation of the ICU at St. George’s Hospital provided a much-needed overhaul to upgrade the equipment and provide the best care to thousands of patients using this major public healthcare facility.

Education

Nishant Group is conscious about the importance of education and the need for resources that will ensure a bright future and new opportunities for underprivileged children. The Group supports NGOs that introduce educative technologies to students, teaching them useful life-skills and providing tools that assist them in their daily life. Through an Integrated Child Development Scheme, young children in India’s Banaskantha and Patan region in Gujarat state are given additional classes to help them make the shift to secondary school.

Community Development

In order to assist the growth of communities, Nishant Group supports NGO TIDE which distributes vegetable seed packets for farming, develops water conservation infrastructure for agriculture and provides clean drinking water. By contributing to conservation of environment, the Group enables communities to rebuild their lives. The Group has been a dedicated patron of the Indian diaspora’s community activities in Dubai and has consistently supported the social and community initiatives for Indians in UAE over the years.
