About us
A century-old vision that’s transforming lives... Tata Trusts is amongst India's oldest, non-sectarian philanthropic organisations. The Trusts own two-third of the stock-holding of Tata Sons Limited, the apex company of the Tata group of companies. The wealth that accrues from this asset supports an assortment of causes, institutions and individuals in a wide variety of areas. This way, the profits that Tata companies earn, go back many times over to the communities they operate in. The funds have been deployed towards community development programmes across the country, for over 100 years now. The Tata Trusts continue to be guided by the principles of its founder, Jamsetji Tata. With his vision of proactive philanthropy and approach to ‘giving’, the Trusts catalyse societal development while ensuring that initiatives and interventions have a contemporary relevance to the nation. Philanthropy that's making a real difference... Since its inception, the Tata Trusts have played a pioneering role in transforming traditional ideas of charity and introducing the concept of philanthropy to make a real difference to communities. Through grant-making, direct implementation and co-partnership strategies, the Trusts support and drive innovation in the areas of: • Natural resource management • Education • Health • Livelihoods • Civil society strengthening • Media, arts, crafts and culture • Relief and rehabilitation • Innovation • Institutions The Trusts engage with competent individuals and government bodies, international agencies and like-minded private sector organisations to nurture a self-sustaining ecosystem that collectively works across all these areas.

As pioneers in cancer care, we cannot stress enough on the importance of early detection. Recent studies show that less than 1% women in India get themselves screened for cancer, magnifying the need for awareness on screening and early detection. On the occasion of National Cancer Awareness day, we spoke to Dr. Shalaka Joshi, Professor and Surgeon, Department of Surgical Oncology and Breast Services at Tata Memorial Centre, Mumbai, to help us decode some fundamentals around breast cancer - things women should know but hesitate to ask.

Empowering women is at the heart of building stronger, more resilient communities. When women have the tools and opportunities to lead, they don't just uplift themselves—they transform the lives around them. The Lakhpati Kisan initiative implemented by the Collective for Integrated Livelihood Initiatives (CInI), supported by Tata Trusts, exemplifies this by empowering women-led institutions. As Mr Ganesh Neelam, Executive Director of CInI says, “We undertake measures like capacity building, member empowerment and leadership development. We work with self-help groups and apex institutions like farmer producer organisations and federations. Reinforcing community institutions is vital to upholding the key drivers of change being implemented.” Through such efforts, women are encouraged to adopt new strategies and technologies, securing livelihoods for many.
