Corporate Social Responsibility has been a way of life for all KK Modi Group companies since long before they became compliance. Leading the CSR initiatives of our group companies, whether its uplifting vulnerable farmer communities in Andhra Pradesh or supporting the education of young girls through initiatives like Khushi, brings me immense pleasure and purpose.

Since 2015, she has been supporting the marginalized farmer community in Andhra Pradesh through multifaceted interventions. These initiatives encompass healthcare provisions, access to clean drinking water via RO water plants, ecological balance through extensive plantations and biodiversity parks, and empowerment of farmers through increased training and education on sustainable agricultural practices. Additionally, the after-school programs have been implemented to ensure children stay in school and are shielded from child labour. Water conservation efforts, including the construction of check-dams, farm ponds, and de-siltation, have also been prioritized.

Furthermore, Project Khushi, conceived by Dr. Bina Modi, aims to empower rural girls nationwide by sponsoring their education or vocational aspirations. Currently supporting deserving girls in Maharashtra, Project Khushi seeks to extend its reach across other regions.
