The Rajasthani Foundation friends and members have worked tirelessly towards developing and participating in sustainable charitable programmes

1. Connecting Elderly@Carehomes with Families during Covid-19 Pandemic

Covid-19 pandemic has transitioned us to a very different way of living, kindness and gratitude has brought us together and will keep us going.

True to our core principles of community and charity we have donated dry food supplies to the hospital and packed lunch to front line key workers.

Currently we are reaching out to the care homes and providing them with hand held electronic tablets for the use of the residents. The idea behind this unique initiative is to help the aged inhabitants read, watch, and browse, play games and showcase their artistic side but above all stay connected with their loved ones via video calls. These trying times have highlighted how fragile we are and the significance of friends and family in our lives.

TRF feels proud to have donated electronic tablets to twenty five care homes around London so far. We are working to expand our reach to other areas around London. Our aims is to target at least 250 Care homes.

Our determination and your support go hand in hand to help achieve our common goal of giving give back to the community.

We would like to share a few responses from some care home managers who have written back to us:

"I just wanted to say a massive thank you for your very kind donation of a tablet to our home. It will mean that we can increase the amount of family contact our residents have, via WhatsApp, Skype, FaceTime etc..

When the pandemic is over and we can open our doors to visitors again, we will be having a “Thank you” Garden Party for all of you out there who have overwhelmed us all with your show of support and generosity, in what are unprecedented times.
Words are not enough, please take care."

4. Farishtey:  Community Ambulance 

Our "pièce de résistance " has been the purchase of a ambulance! This was done in conjunction with Young Indian's from Kolkata. The ambulance named Farishtey is being deployed in rural parts to service the needy as well. So next time you visit the city please look out for the ambulance with TRF logo. As you read through the magazine you will find more details of the operations.

Any adversity brings with it lot of community support and strength, in fact it has galvanised us. You have helped us achieve all this.

TRF Support

The Rajasthani Foundation has supported the school with donations that have assisted with new buildings and improving the infrastructure. We are currently raising funds to be able to allow the school to hire better qualified teachers, purchase modern equipment, and expand lodging capacity to increase the student population.
