Vultures are apex scavengers and important indicators of ecosystem health. Their population decline has altered nutrient cycling and carcass disposal dynamics across many landscapes.

Ecological restoration interventions undertaken by Raah Foundation in Dindori Block aim to enhance habitat quality, biodiversity, and ecosystem functionality, thereby improving the suitability of the landscape for a wider range of faunal species, including vultures.

Celebrating the culture, history, and spirit of Maharashtra—its past that shapes us, its present that grounds us, and its future that calls us forward.

The land we belong to, and the land that allows us to do the work we believe in.

As surface water sources shrink earlier each year, farmers are pushed into high-cost, unsustainable coping mechanisms — early harvests, tanker dependency, and excessive groundwater extraction.

Through our on-ground interventions, we at Raah Foundation work to slow this cycle — by restoring local water bodies, enabling recharge structures, and building community governance around water use.

The goal is to provide small, local solutions that create long-term resilience while protecting water availability for the long term.

A unique perspective emerges when philanthropy goes beyond giving and is closely connected to on-ground realities.

Sarika was recently invited as a panelist by Dasra to speak on the journey of philanthropy and social change. She brought a dual lens—both as a philanthropist and as the Founder of Raah Foundation—offering insights shaped by direct engagement with communities.

This intersection of roles enables a deeper understanding of how intent translates into impact, and how philanthropy can move beyond funding to enabling long-term, community-led change.

Grateful to be part of conversations that are shaping a more thoughtful and grounded approach to social impact.

For us at Raah Foundation, Earth Day isn’t just a date on the calendar. It’s a powerful reminder of how deeply our lives are tied to the health of our planet, and how urgent it is to protect it.

Through our works, we’ve seen and know that when land, water, and air suffer, so do people. These interconnected challenges demand action at scale. These aren’t isolated issues. They are interconnected realities that demand action at scale.

That’s why this Earth Day, we celebrate with purpose and responsibility.

In the Western Ghats of Maharashtra, we are restoring land with climate-smart farming, building resilient water systems, and creating green lungs for cleaner air, we’re not just raising awareness, we’re driving real, on-ground change.

This Earth Day, we go beyond words; standing besides our beneficiaries — farmers, families, and tribal communities; building resilience that lasts for generations to come. 🌍

This hill was barren. Now, 11,000 trees are learning how to be a forest.

🌿 At Kadicha Dongar and Dhakari (Hill) in Konkankhede village in Nashik, degraded community land that hadn’t held water or shade for years is being brought back to life — one native sapling at a time. Seeds sourced from local forests. Saplings raised by Adivasi families. A restoration that started before the first sapling was planted.

Year one result? The water in the well lasted longer. Insects returned. The soil started breathing again. This is what Capri Loans and Raah Foundation are building together — not a plantation, a regeneration.

When soil loses moisture too quickly under extreme heat, it doesn’t just affect crops—it reshapes a farmer’s entire season, income, and decisions.

Seeds need consistent moisture to sprout. When soil dries too fast, seeds fail to germinate, young plants die early, and farmers are forced to re-sow, resulting in extra cost and loss of time.

There isn’t a single fix—what works is a combination of small, practical interventions that help soil hold water longer and reduce dependence on unpredictable rainfall.

Here are 3 ways we at Raah Foundation help our farmers across Palghar, Nashik, and Raigad

1. Mulching: By covering the soil with crop residue, straw, or leaves helps reduce evaporation from heat and keeps the roots cooler

2. Drip Irrigation: By using water more efficiently, this technique delivers water directly to plant roots, avoiding wastage from evaporation or runoff.

3. Shifting to Climate-Resilient Crops: Growing crops that require less water than water-intensive crops, helps farmers cope with climate change.
