the underserved through our varied CSR activities and community projects, being carried out
under the aegis of Jaquar Foundation. ‘Sanitation, Health and Education form the core of our

The Jaquar Group is a rapidly growing multi-diversified bathroom solutions provider.
Today, it caters to various socio-economic segments with brands such as Artize in
the luxury category, Jaquar in the premium section and Essco in the value segment.

A key part of our vision is to actively contribute to the social and economic
development of the communities that we are a part of. Our subsidiary, Jaquar
Foundation, has been focusing on building a better, sustainable way of life for the
weaker and less privileged sections of society.
The goal? To make a ‘Swachchha, Swastha, Sikshit, Avam Kushal Bharat’. We are

Focus Area
Education
Promoting education amongst children from weaker / poor section of society.
We also provide financial support to government schools for children’s education.
Skill development
As our nation is in shortage of skilled plumbers, we contribute to recognise Plumbing
Institutes / Organisations for the training of interested youth in the country. We have
set up Plumbing Labs pan India for imparting skill / advanced training in Plumbing
and allied areas.
Health
Jaquar Foundation has sponsored hospitals / health institutes for the treatment of
patients from underprivileged sections of society for various types of diseases.
Rural development
Under Smartgram initiatives of President of India (POI) Jaquar Foundation has
adopted 4 villages. We have provided R.O. plants for drinking water and health care
facilities by operating mobile ambulance.
Sanitation
Under its sanitation initiatives, Jaquar Foundation has already constructed toilets in
various schools in Delhi NCR. Jaquar Foundation has also made 6 toilet complexes
at various public places in Gurugram.
Educational Initiatives by Jaquar foundation
To promote education amongst children of the weaker sections of society, we are focused on
bridging the gap between the standard of public and private educational institutions so that every
child gets the same facilities and opportunities for their future.

We understand that most social ills arise due to the lack of proper basic education in India. Which
is why we have pledged to eradicate illiteracy through our various interventions across our
targeted areas.

1. More than 35 schools across Delhi NCR and Bhiwadi region have been adopted by
Jaquar under our educational initiative

2. With our school adoption initiative, we have touched the lives of more than 9000
students

3. Apart from the distribution of uniforms, stationery and all basic requirements of each
student, we have also helped the schools in providing and fulfilling all kinds of
infrastructural requirements

06
We believe that the prime need of every government school today is its infrastructure. Most
government schools are lacking in proper classroom and toilet facilities. Jaquar Foundation has
focused on the infrastructural development of each of its adopted schools and changed the face
of these schools. Under the Swachch Bharat Initiative we have constructed toilet complexes in
each of our adopted schools across Delhi NCR and Bhiwadi.

Other than school buildings, during our baseline survey of each school we found out that all these
schools required proper seating facilities for students. Most government schools lacked basic
facilities like benches and tables for the students, and therefore Jaquar foundation helped each of
its adopted schools by providing ample tables and benches for students.

Skill Development Initiatives by Jaquar Foundation
Considering the shortage of skilled plumbers in India (approx 1.5 Lakhs) we have initiated the
programme of skilling plumbers in India. We have made 14 plumbing labs with various prestigious
institutes I.e. S.B.T. Don Bosco, S.D.I, Art of living, National Academy of Construction, CRISP,
DTTE etc. with State Govt. Skill Development missions of Kerala, Jharkhand, Uttrakhand,
Maharashtra, Odisha etc.

Jaquar Foundation is focused on constructing Skill Development Centres across India in


association with various State Governments (Govt. Of Haryana, Uttarakhand, MP, Kerala etc),
renowned NGOs (Swarna Bharat Trust, CRISP etc.) and other well known institutions like Skill
Development Institute (SDI), Don Bosco, Delhi Technical Training Education (DTTE), NAC, ASAP
etc. Till date Jaquar Foundation has constructed 14 plumbing labs. Around 25 plumbing labs are

08
in the pipeline (in association with TATA Motors at various locations of Delhi NCR, and with Aditya
Birla Group, GMR, Art of Living etc). To help eradicate crime and other social evils, Jaquar
Foundation has associated itself with Director General Prisons in order to provide plumbing skills
to the prisoners of various central and state jails. We have a collaboration with Director General
Prisons for the construction of plumbing labs at Rajahmundri, Pulwama, Tihar, Vishakhapatnam
etc., as well as with other reputed institutions like Sath Guru Ram Singh (SGRS), at Ranchi,
Jharkhand, and Art of Living which shall be completed within next financial year.

The expected growth of real estate needs to be complemented with availability of skilled
manpower. It is important to note that plumbing skill used is not only restricted to water but for
gas and oil also. The objective is to train unemployed youth in specialised skill sets and develop
them as trained plumbers. This would not only help them to generate enough for their livelihood
but will contribute to the Make in India initiative. The salient features of Jaquar Foundation Skill
Initiative:

1. Construction of Skill Development Centres for unemployed youth across India.

2. Training, educating and certifying youth to cater to the growing need of plumbing in India. The
training shall be free of cost and the students shall be certified by NSDC & Jaquar Foundation.

3. The students shall be trained with the most modern plumbing technologies to make them
competitive in the global market.

4. We have already constructed 14 plumbing labs pan-India and we plan to construct 40 Skill
Development Centres across India in 2 years starting 2017. Till date we have trained around
300 students from our different skill development centres in the plumbing stream, providing
perhaps the best technical and practical knowledge about the same.

Health Initiatives by Jaquar Foundation
Many of India’s villages lack even basic healthcare facilities and that’s why Jaquar Foundation has
chosen to work towards providing access to proper health services across India. We sponsor
hospitals / health institutes which treat patients from underprivileged sections of society who may
be suffering from a range of diseases.

The list of hospitals to whom Jaquar Foundation has extended its help, and will continue to do so
in the current financial year, include:

St. Stephens Hospital, Delhi: Jaquar Foundation has been sponsoring the treatment of polio /
paisley affected patients for the last three years. We also sponsor patient’s treatment for eye
surgery and artificial limbs in this hospital.

St. Parmanand Hospital, Delhi: Jaquar Foundation has been sponsoring cataract operations
and gynae surgery of underprivileged patients.

National Thalassemia Welfare Society, Delhi: Jaquar Foundation sponsors free / subsidised
medicine for poor and needy Thalassemia patients. Along with this, Jaquar Foundation provides
infusion pumps for patients who can’t afford such costly equipment.

Sahayata Charitable Trust: Jaquar Foundation sponsors cancer patients by providing monetary
support for Chemotherapy treatments.

in Haryana (Daula, Harchandpur, Alipur, etc). The number of beneficiaries is around 120 per day.

Rural Development Initiatives by Jaquar Foundation
As a socially responsible business practice and in accordance with the CSR norms, Jaquar
Foundation has adopted four villages (Daula, Harchandpur, Alipur and Tajnagar) under the
Smartgram Initiative of the Rashtrapati Bhawan.

We have provided all four villages with access to clean drinking water by installing RO
water plants and have impacted the life of around 16 thousand people living in these
villages.

Medical facilities in our villages lag far behind those in urban areas and Jaquar
Foundation decided to help change that by providing Mobile Health Services in all our
adopted villages. This Mobile Van is being run by PHD Family Welfare Foundation and an
average of 120 patients are treated each day.
