We educate young people, care for the young and the old, and build the infrastructure that makes both last.
What does dignity look like when it's delivered in person? Watch how Nigama Foundation shows up in classrooms, care homes, and communities, one life at a time.
Nigama Foundation — Our Intro Video
We believe dignity isn't given. It's delivered in person, by hand, on time. Nigama Foundation works across Hyderabad, Vizag, and Chennai to educate young people who lack supplies and infrastructure, care for both the young and the old who've been left behind, and build the physical backbone — classrooms, water plants, and supply lines — that makes both last.
"One must serve without expectations. The Nigama Foundation embodies this principle, investing in change with hope for a better world." — Sameer Penakalapati, Founder
Every rupee arrives as something you can touch.
Each pillar targets a different gap: from the classroom to the care home to the communities we build for.
An auditorium built at Uravakonda Jr College. Computers and exam planks at GVMC High School, Vizag. Fifty children sponsored every year with uniforms and supplies. Education needs infrastructure. We build it, stock it, and stay.

Growing old — or growing up with no one in your corner — should not mean growing invisible. We bring care to seniors and youth alike: quarterly drives, essentials, companionship, and the consistent attention that turns a visit into a commitment.

Programs end. Buildings, water plants, and supply lines don't. An auditorium at Uravakonda, computer labs at GVMC High School, water filtration for flood-hit communities — pillar three is why pillars one and two survive us.
Build Something Permanent →
In a junior college classroom in Kurnool, a sixteen-year-old asks a question he's never said out loud: how do I stop being on my phone at 2 a.m.? That question is why this exists. Parivarthan is Nigama Foundation's flagship mental health initiative — reaching India's youth before a crisis does.
In June 2025, Nigama Foundation installed a water filtration system at a government school in a village near Anantapur, Andhra Pradesh. For years, students had been drinking from an untreated borewell. The water looked clear. The effects were not.
The new filtration unit now delivers clean drinking water to over 300 students every school day. No more students going home with stomach infections. No more parents choosing to pull kids from school because they kept falling sick.
"The children used to complain of stomach pain almost every week. Since the filter was installed, we have not had a single case."
School Headmaster, Anantapur District"The auditorium constructed by NIGAMA FOUNDATION at our college campus is very useful for daily prayers, seminars, college functions, and examinations."
"My heartfelt gratitude for the financial support for the medical emergency from Nigama Foundation. Your generosity has made a significant impact on my life, relieving a burden and allowing me to address pressing needs."
"The provision of Computers, Exam planks, and school supplies is fostering inclusivity and ensuring every student has resources for their education."
Expanded across 8 districts of Andhra Pradesh — reaching 170+ institutions and 22,000+ young adults.
