Pirojsha Godrej Foundation promotes a unique community development Programme called Svayam.
The search for suitable livelihood was driving the tribals of Jummapatti into city limits. Parallely, to meet the increasing household needs of the resident villagers, the depleting forest cover was also a cause of concern.
Svayam focussed on providing a sustainable livelihood for locals through entrepreneurial development balanced with a sense of environmental consciousness.
Pirojsha Godrej Scout & Guide Pavilion
The Scout Hut, in existence since 1923 was restored by the Pirojsha Godrej Foundation between 1983-85 and made available to organisations like WWF, Friends of Trees and BNHS.
In 1997, the area outside the hut was developed into the Godrej Centenary Garden – a haven for tired pedestrians.
Godrej continues to maintain the hut and garden.
CII-Godrej Tsunami Rehabilitation Project

A sum of over Rs. 56 L was handed over to CII.

Crematorium for animals
Shocked by the horrifying conditions of the dilapidated incinerator at Bombay Veterinary College, where Naval Godrej’s pet labrador was cremated, he sponsored the very first electric crematorium at the Bai Sakarbai Dinshaw Petit Hospital for animals at Parel, the first non-polluting crematorium of its kind in Asia.
World Wide Fund (WWF) for animals
WWF-India began as a modest, wild-life conservation organisation. Over the years, the perspective has broadened to encompass conservation of habitats and ecosystems and to lend support to the management of the country’s protected area network.
Our commitment to global conservation is reflected in our continued association with WWF.
