We are excited to announce the 8th anniversary of the Lighthouse Communities Foundation! Aundh Lighthouse, the first center established by Lighthouse Communities Foundation in Pune, has transformed the lives of over 2650 youth in just 8 years!
We were honored to have Shri. Ganesh Sonune, Disaster Management Officer of Pune Municipal Corporation, Mr. Girish Bidani, Center Head, HSBC Global Technology, and Ms. Damini Khaire, Assistant Vice President of Corporate Sustainability at HSBC Technology India, grace the occasion.

Embrace challenges as opportunities to grow, and remember, perseverance is your anchor, holding you steady as you navigate the currents of life.”
