About DLF Foundation

DLF Foundation's vision is to transform the communities we work with through high-impact interventions in spheres of education, environment, healthcare, social sustainability, and sports promotion for enabling a better quality of life and creating sustainable ecosystems for all stakeholders within the immediate and extended communities.

We accomplish this by creating customised programmes and innovative institutions that address India’s current development challenges, and by providing a platform for the Foundation to collaborate with other institutions, professionals, and subject-matter experts to deliver sustained, amplified impact across communities of interest.

DLF Foundation transforms communities by delivering high-impact interventions in the following focus areas:

Education

DLF CARES Education Support Programme is the flagship initiative of DLF Foundation, established in 2011. The Programme has been transforming lives through quality education and holistic student development, supporting thousands of students across 20 states. The In-School Programme, which begins from Class I in both partner and non-partner schools nationwide, now ensures that scholars successfully transition into tertiary education, including undergraduate, vocational, and professional courses, thereby enhancing their employment opportunities. The Programme focuses on the overall development of scholars by supporting them through counselling, career guidance, mentoring, workshops, and intensive teacher-training. DLF CARES has won various awards, including the Indian CSR Award 2025, the Innovative CSR Project Award 2025, the Shiksha Bharti Award 2025, among others. Know more

Environment

At DLF Foundation, environmental sustainability is a priority. Eco-friendly projects, along with greening and plantation, play a crucial role in developing green cities, improving air quality and enhancing climate resilience. The Foundation, through its Greening Cities Programme, undertakes extensive plantations in collaboration with government authorities by adopting public green belts. Additionally, to provide Gurugram with a modern, environmentally friendly, culturally sensitive, and universally accessible crematorium, DLF Foundation, in partnership with the Gurugram Sehri Vikas Pradhikaran, is developing a crematorium that will serve as a benchmark civic amenity. DLF Foundation has been honoured with the CSR Times Gold Award in the Environment category for the third consecutive year. In 2025, the Foundation also received a Special Commendation for the eco-sensitive development of the Shanti Sthaan Crematorium. Know more
