The Nand & Jeet Khemka Foundation focuses on strategic philanthropy, aiming to create cross-sectoral cooperation and infrastructure development within India and abroad. The areas of the Foundation’s focus lie in sustainability, social entrepreneurship, welfare, healthcare, and education. Although the Foundation has been active globally and across India, some of the key programmes run by NJKF are centred around Nabha (Punjab) and in five districts in the state of Bihar, the ancestral geographies of the Khemka family.

The Nabha Foundation focuses on the transformation of rural communities in India, through a holistic and integrated rural development model. The Foundation combines strategic financial investments with localised initiatives for social and economic empowerment, including initiatives in education, health, and heritage conservation, focused in Nabha and other parts of Punjab.

The Foundation also works to support the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Youthreach develops, supports and encourages voluntary initiatives around changemaking. Youthreach primarily reaches underprivileged children and youth, seeking to tackle environmental issues and improve livelihoods.

Founded in 1999, ISB is one of India’s flagship management institutions and is the first business school in India to be one of the top-ranked globally. The ISB is committed to creating such leaders through its innovative programmes, outstanding faculty, and thought leadership. The ISB is a not-for-profit organisation funded by private corporations, foundations, and individuals from around the world who believe in its vision. The Khemka family supported the idea of the Indian School of Business from the start, and Uday Khemka is an ISB board member.

The initial idea to build a world-class business school, modelled on the ISB in Hyderabad, was presented by Nand Khemka to the Russian Government in the early 2000s. Based on this initiative and with the leadership of Ruben Vardanian and several Russian and international business leaders, the Moscow School of Management SKOLKOVO was established in 2006, and has become the leading business school in Russia. Shiv Khemka is a founding board member of the school.

The Khemka family has also helped establish a number of other institutions in India such as the Public Health Foundation of India (PHFI) with leading partners such as the Gates Foundation, and Brookings India with a number of India’s leading business families. The Centre for Advanced Studies on India at the University of Pennsylvania has also been supported by the family for its important work.
