Who We Are
Jeevan Aasha Jyoti Foundation
Jeevan Aasha Jyoti Foundation is a non-profit organisation dedicated to improving the lives of underprivileged people and caring for street animals. Registered under the Bombay Public Trusts Act, 1950 with the Greater Mumbai Region, we work in the areas of food support, education, medical help, animal welfare and community welfare to bring hope and dignity to society.
We believe that humanity grows when we serve others — and that belief guides every drive, camp and visit we organise, however small.

Our Story
Building a better tomorrow, together
What began as informal food and welfare drives led by a small group of volunteers in Kandivali West has grown into a registered public charitable trust with a clear mission: to serve people and animals who are too often overlooked.
Today, that same spirit of grassroots service continues to guide every programme we run — from a weekly food drive to a full day medical camp.
Grassroots beginnings
Volunteer-led food distribution and welfare drives begin in Mumbai under the leadership of Vijay Chaurasiya.
