Setu: Bridging the Gap

A Magical Night of Generosity at ‘Setu’ – An Evening of Giving…

SVP India (Kolkata), marked a momentous occasion for SVP India on 6th October 2023, exceeding even our highest expectations!

Over 130 attendees showcased the incredible power of compassion that evening, and many devoted supporters stepped forward to make significant financial pledges to our four chosen NGOs.

We were honoured to have Mr. Ashish Dhawan, Founder & CEO of The Convergence Foundation and Chairperson of Ashoka University, grace the event with his presence. He shared interesting insights on balancing philanthropy and personal spending.

Our Partner Mentor, Mr. Ravindra Chamaria, proudly unveiled the total contributions, which are truly awe-inspiring: a remarkable ₹6.22 crores generously donated by our dedicated SVP partners and wonderful guests. This was a joyous moment for the four NGOs selected for the pitch.
