Set up in 1996, Dr. Reddy’s Foundation (DRF) is a non-profit partner of Dr.
Reddy’s Laboratories. Driven by its belief in the inherent motivation and
capacity of the human being for progress – given the appropriate and
adequate environment – DRF innovates and tries out novel concepts that are
continuously refined and scaled up to cover larger groups of disadvantaged
populations.
Seeing the possibilities rather than the problems created by
change, DRF plays the role of a change agent in the social sector, by
recognizing and pursuing new opportunities to serve that mission, and by
engaging in a process of continuous innovation, adaptation and learning.
DRF’s interventions span two sectors:
Livelihoods
Through a wide array of vocational training programs, DRF addresses the issues
of employability, income generation and consequent improvement in quality of
life.
Education
DRF strives to provide various opportunities for learning to those who have
never been to school, or have dropped out of it; it also works to improve the
quality of education in schools. |
