BizAcuity and Goonj join hands to Support Assam Flood Relief
Goonj Foundation, one of the most well-recognized NGOs in India, has been galvanizing mass civic participation in issues like rural infrastructure, water scarcity, education, and disaster relief since 1999. Their initiatives created a barter between urban surplus and village communities’ labor, triggering large-scale rural development work.
Annual floods in northeastern states like Assam cause widespread destruction, with over 3 million people being forced from their homes due to rising water levels each year. Goonj has been initiating more than 500 rural development projects every month, and their work impacts millions of people from over 5000 villages in India.
BizAcuity joined hands with the Goonj Foundation led by Devna Jain, a 14-year student with an interest in social work, to conduct a week-long donation drive as a part of the Assam flood relief initiative. Our support and encouragement contributed to the vision of Goonj, aiming to build bridges of dignity between the cities and villages.
Towards feeding millions: BizAcuity collaborates with the Hare Krishna Movement by ISKCON
The Hare Krishna Movement is dedicated to a mission that aligns with the core humanitarian values of empathy and compassion. This global movement stands out as the largest provider of vegetarian meals, serving millions of individuals daily through initiatives spanning over 60 countries. During the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic, their outreach efforts garnered significant attention as they distributed free meals and essential groceries to those in need. The Akshayapathra initiative by the organization, known for “Feeding for Education,” ensures daily meals for 19,039 government and government-aided schools, with its primary goal being to create an India where no child gets deprived of education due to hunger.
Recognizing the importance of this cause, BizAcuity stepped in as a sponsor to support their noble endeavors. In collaboration with Devna Jain, a socially conscious 14-year-old, BizAcuity contributed to feeding the underprivileged for the Hare Krishna movement in Hyderabad.
This partnership highlights the profound significance of social service as a moral duty, emphasizing our collective commitment to creating a lasting and transformative impact on the lives of those in need.

Reviving Ganga: BizAcuity renders a helping hand
The Ganges River, an important freshwater source for millions in India’s Gangetic plains, faces severe pollution due to the lack of an effective waste management system and unregulated activities along its banks. As the Ganga meanders through 11 states, spanning over 2500 kilometers, it has suffered from decades of pollution caused by untreated sewage, industrial waste, and various other contaminants. BizAcuity’s support is dedicated to the Clean Ganga Fund, which is instrumental in the endeavor to cleanse the Ganga, India’s largest, but regrettably, one of the most polluted rivers.
