Reiterating its commitment to empowering women at the grassroots level, Kutchina Foundation, the CSR wing of Kutchina Home Makers Pvt Ltd is building the capabilities of social entrepreneurs in women on a year-on-year basis. Kutchina Foundation (KF) is a Kolkata-based Corporate Social Responsibility organization engaged in women's empowerment by promoting women social entrepreneurs selected across India who are coming from marginalized backgrounds.

Since 2014 under Kutchina Krritika Fellowship programme, KF has been able to create such changes across India, from Dimapur to Jaipur. KF currently has 20 Krritikas fellows who have been supported enthusiastically and they, in turn, have brought direct changes in the lives of more than one lakh beneficiaries directly and nearly four lakh beneficiaries indirectly. Going ahead, KF aspires to have Kutchina Krritikas in all the states of India where Kutchina is present. In three years, KFF aspires to develop 50 Krritikas and 100 Kriti Kanyas. By this, KF’s vision is to make an impact at two levels — in the lives of Indian women, making them more powerful, and through them strengthening India, as KF believes that an empowered country needs empowered women.

Namit Bajoria, chairperson, Kutchina Foundation, along with  Melinda Pavek, US Consul General Kolkata, Nick Low, British Deputy High Commissioner to Kolkata and CG Zha Liyou, Chinese Consul General was present at the 8th  Annual Day Celebrations of Kutchina Foundation at ICCR on November 18  with other dignitaries.

Namit Bajoria said, “We are extremely happy and would also like to share our gratitude with both our dear friends Melinda Pavek and Nick Low for taking out time and being with us today.” He further added, “Kutchina Foundation Day is celebrated to highlight achievements of our foundation, focusing on the positive power and the common thread of kindness that binds us. KF will continue to extend its support to Krritika’s by KF’s extensive support and network and this year we are going to add three further Krittika’s to our current seventeen and we aspire to empower 50 Krritikas and 100 Kriti Kanyas in three years’ time.”
