About Adish and Asha Jain Foundation
A defining feature of Adish and Asha Jain Foundation Inc is its sustained support for Indian school-meal and education infrastructure, including repeated funding for Akshaya Patra Foundation’s kitchen facilities in Ghaziabad, India. The foundation also backs partner organizations that deliver coaching, digital learning, and health-related support for children and communities in India, while keeping a portion of its grantmaking in New Jersey for Indian cultural and community institutions. Its giving shows a preference for concentrated, project-based support rather than a broad spread of small awards. Among the larger recent grants, the foundation gave $100,000 to Indian Cultural Center for construction improvements and mortgage paydown, and another $100,000 to Ekal Vidyalaya Foundation of USA for a digital learning center serving high school students in India.
