The foundation favors mission-driven, grassroots and advocacy groups working directly with women and girls affected by exploitation.
The Mulchand & Parpati Thadhani Fnd directs some of its largest recent gifts to efforts that end sexual exploitation and support women’s health. In 2025, it gave $330,638 to ECPAT USA for “End the Sexual Exploitation of Child,” its biggest recent grant in the data, alongside $175,000 to AFE Foundation for “Clinical Concepts in Obstetrics.” Those awards reflect a pattern of backing organizations that work directly with children, women, and girls through advocacy, prevention, and care.

The funder also supports humanitarian responses tied to women and children, including Ukraine relief and neighboring-country support.
