Empowering lives through H.E.L.P.
A 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded by Class of ’89 alumni from Thadomal Shahani Engineering College(tsec.edu). We address root causes of poverty in India — not symptoms — through four interlocking pillars.
Generosity consists not the sum given, but the manner in which it is bestowed. — Mahatma Gandhi
Our H.E.L.P. Framework
Four interlocking pillars, designed to address root causes — not symptoms.
Health
Access to essential healthcare, medical facilities, and health education for communities.
Education
Literacy programs, scholarships, and skill development to expand opportunity.
Livelihoods
Sustainable income, entrepreneurship, and vocational training for economic independence.
Psychosocial
Mental health, social support, and community building for holistic development.
TAP Charity Inc. was founded during the COVID-19 pandemic when alumni from the Class of ’89 of Thadomal Shahani Engineering College reconnected virtually after decades apart. The pandemic surfaced inequalities we had grown up alongside in India — and we decided to act.
We don’t run programs on the ground. We partner with specialized organizations who do — and we hold them, and ourselves, accountable to measurable outcomes.
