Aligning Corporate Vision with Social Impact: The Need for Clean Water
For major corporations in India, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is more than a statutory requirement under Section 135 of the Companies Act; it is an opportunity to build a legacy of sustainable development. Among the most pressing needs in public welfare is the provision of safe, chilled drinking water—especially in high-density pilgrimage hubs.
At Charanvandan Foundation, we invite corporate partners to lead the charge in public health by sponsoring "Piyaao" (Safe Drinking Water Stations) in regions with the highest footfall: the Sangam in Prayagraj and the Girivalam path in Tiruvannamalai.
Why Your Company Should Invest in "Piyaao" Water Stations
Fulfilling SDG 6 and CSR Mandates
Water is the essence of life, yet thousands of pilgrims and local residents lack access to purified water during peak summer months. By funding water stations, your organization directly contributes to Sustainable Development Goal 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation), making your CSR report both impactful and compliant.
High Brand Visibility and PR Value
Our drinking water stations are strategically placed in areas like the Sangam in Prayagraj and the 14km Girivalam path in Tiruvannamalai, where millions gather annually. Every station features visible branding of the sponsoring partner, helping your brand stand for relief, compassion, and service.
Measurable Impact and Transparency
Charanvandan Foundation provides detailed impact reports, including liters of water served and number of beneficiaries, along with utilization certificates, audited financial statements, and regular photographic and video updates from the site.
Strategic Locations for Maximum Reach
The Sangam, Prayagraj
As the confluence of three sacred rivers, Prayagraj hosts the Magh Mela and Kumbh Mela. During these times, the demand for safe water is astronomical. Your sponsorship ensures that the most vulnerable—the elderly and pilgrims—stay hydrated and safe from water-borne diseases.
Girivalam Path, Tiruvannamalai
The 14km circumambulation of the holy Arunachala hill is performed by thousands daily, often under intense heat. A sponsored "Piyaao" station along this path offers life-saving hydration to devotees completing their spiritual journey.
