In loving memory of Kiran Singh, Balkrishna Singh & Dharmendra Singh
Kiran Foundation was set up in 2026, so these numbers are small. We would rather publish a small figure accurately than a large one loosely, and we would rather tell you how we counted than ask you to take it on trust.
Since We Started
Numbers never tell the whole story, but they do tell you what your kindness has already built.
Programme by Programme
A headline figure is easy to write and hard to check. This is the same work counted one programme at a time.
| Programme | What we count | To date | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kidney Care & Dialysis | Sessions funded | 148 | Across 6 patients, paid directly to their dialysis centres |
| Gau Seva | Cattle treated | 64 | Abandoned, injured, or belonging to families who could not pay a vet |
| Gau Seva | Cows in ongoing care | 11 | Fodder and treatment funded month by month |
| Healthcare | People seen at camps | 96 | At 2 camps; 11 were referred onward for tests they had never had |
| Healthcare | Patients on ongoing support | 9 | Monthly medicines and tests, settled with the chemist |
| Women & Elderly Care | Elderly parents visited monthly | 18 | Medicines, a check-up, nutrition and an hour of somebody's time |
| Women & Elderly Care | Women supported | 14 | Skills training, or help through a crisis |
| Education | Children with school costs covered | 80 | Fees, books, uniforms and shoes, term by term |
| Food & Nutrition | Families on monthly ration kits | 34 | Delivered on a schedule, not as a one-off drive |
| Winter Relief | Quilts and woollen sets given out | 120 | Prioritised towards elderly people living alone |
| Reach | Villages and settlements | 12 | All within reach of our Noida office |
These figures overlap. A family on ration kits may also have a child in the education programme and a grandparent on our monthly visits. The headline figure counts each person once; this table counts each programme separately, so the two will not add up to the same total.
Definitions
Charity numbers are usually presented without saying what they mean. Here is exactly what ours mean.
A named individual who received something specific from us: a funded session, a month of medicines, a term of school costs, a ration kit, a monthly visit. Each person is counted once, however many times we helped them, and however many programmes they appear in.
A village or settlement where we have run a camp or where somebody we support lives. We do not count a place because we passed through it, and we do not count the same place twice for two different programmes.
People who have either given time in the field or given money more than once. A single donation, gratefully received, does not put somebody in this number.
Wherever the need is a dialysis session, a course of medicines, a test or a school fee, we do not hand over cash. We settle the bill directly with the dialysis centre, the hospital, the chemist or the school.
This is not a governance flourish. It does two practical things. It spares a family an awkward conversation about money they did not ask to need, and it means there is a receipt from a third party for every rupee, rather than our word for it.
The exceptions are the things that can only be given as goods: ration kits, quilts, woollens and school supplies. Those are bought in bulk and handed over directly, and we keep the purchase invoices.
We are one year old. There is a lot we cannot yet tell you, and we would rather say so than fill the gap with something impressive.
We update these figures every three months rather than continuously, because a number that changes every day is a number nobody can check. If something here looks wrong to you, please tell us. We would rather correct it than defend it.
2026 So Far
Everything below has already happened. There is no roadmap on this page.
Set up in Noida in memory of our mother, Kiran Singh, our father, Balkrishna Singh, and our brother, Dharmendra Singh.
Two patients, paid directly to their dialysis centre. This was the programme we understood best, so it was the one we started with.
School fees, books and uniforms covered for the first group of children, term by term rather than as a single grant.
Our father's own work, taken up again: treatment and fodder for abandoned and injured cattle, and free veterinary care for families who cannot pay for it.
Our mother's work, organised: medicines, a check-up, nutrition and an hour of somebody's time, every month, for elderly parents living alone.
Food support shifts from occasional drives to a monthly delivery, because the need it addresses is monthly too.
Every one of them is a recurring cost somebody agreed to carry. If you want the next figure on this page to be larger, that is how it happens.
