Dear Friends,
Chothani Foundation is born not only from a lifetime of service, but from a shared family conviction that values must outlive individuals.
For us, Dr. Krishnakumar Chothani has always been more than a doctor. He has been a living example of humility, discipline, and compassion in action.
For over five decades, we have watched him place service above comfort, people above process, and conscience above convenience. His work has never sought recognition—only relevance.
As a family, we felt a deep responsibility to ensure that this way of life does not remain confined to memory, but evolves into a structured, enduring institution. Chothani Foundation represents that responsibility.
This Foundation is our collective promise:
Each of the Foundation’s focus areas—education, healthcare, animal welfare, rural development, and sports—reflects causes that have been close to his heart and integral to his life’s work.
They are not initiatives chosen for scale, but for significance.
As trustees and family members, we commit ourselves to:
We view this Foundation not as a project, but as a continuum—a bridge between generations, carrying forward a philosophy of service that believes real change happens quietly, consistently, and with integrit
Our hope is simple: that Chothani Foundation becomes a place where values are practised, lives are touched, and service remains sacred.
This is our legacy.
This is our responsibility.
This is our offering to the future.
The Chothani Family
Trustees,
Chothani Foundation
