About Accelerate Indian Philanthropy (AIP)
We aim to build an institution that is at the vanguard of philanthropic giving, transforming the strategic giving landscape in India. Our mission is to work with individuals and families (in India and globally) to create long-term and sustainable impact across a range of mission critical domains.
We are supported by leading Indian philanthropists who have successfully built institutions and funded organisations that are experts in their specific domain. These philanthropists bring an Indian ethos to giving, deep operating knowledge of various sectors, and experience in partnering with government on both policy and grassroots level implementation.
About the Founders:
Ashish Dhawan is one of India’s leading philanthropists. He founded and ran one of India’s first private equity funds, ChrysCapital, and in the last decade has helped build successful institutions (for e.g., Ashoka University) and strategic foundations (for e.g., Central Square Foundation, which works on school education reform). More recently, these include the portfolio organisations listed above, which are working on building a better understanding between India and East Asia, improving the performance of the public sector, solving the air pollution crisis, and improving the pipeline of leadership and talent in the social sector.
