Lupin Human Welfare & Research Foundation (LHWRF) is the social responsibility arm of Lupin Limited, founded by Dr. Desh Bandu Gupta in 1988. In its journey spanning over three decades, the foundation has covered over 1.45 million beneficiaries in over 5000 villages in 23 districts spread across nine states in India. Over the years, the foundation has largely focused on building sustainable livelihood opportunities and triggering economic growth in some of the most backward and underdeveloped districts of India. It has adopted a family-centered approach and initiated measures that help them break the vicious circle of poverty, positively impacting their lives and livelihoods. Key drivers of economic development have been structured long-term programs and interventions in the areas of agriculture, animal husbandry, women empowerment, and rural industries. In order to ensure that economic development is substantiated by social upliftment and an improvement in quality of life, the organization has been working relentlessly in the areas of health and education at the grassroots level. Structured efforts have been made to upgrade the local infrastructure, build awareness, catalyse positive behaviour change and facilitate access to healthcare services for the most marginalized and underserved communities. The foundation works extensively with various government and non-government partners, international development agencies, and like-minded philanthropic organizations to mobilize additional resources and extend its reach to several more isolated and underserved populations, covering a large majority of landless tribal, scheduled caste, and minority populations in target geographies.
