Joy of Giving Fund

About

From October 2nd to October 8th, 2025, we will join in India's nationally celebrated Joy of Giving Week, or Daan Utsav. This annual festival coincides with Mahatma Gandhi's birthday and inspires people from all walks of life to contribute their time, money, and resources to their communities. Activities range from volunteering and organizing food drives to committing simple acts of kindness. While the festival is rooted in India, the spirit of giving transcends all borders. ETS's Global Philanthropy team encourages every employee to participate in this tradition of generosity by contributing in a way that resonates with you and your local community. For those in India: We look to you to lead the way in this inspiring tradition by participating in local Joy of Giving initiatives. For those outside of India: We encourage you to participate in your local communities through various acts of service or kindness. Support one or all of the organizations in the Joy of Giving Fund - or choose one that you are passionate about. Let's come together for the Joy of Giving!

Goonj aims to build an equitable relationship of strength, sustenance, and dignity between the cities and villages, using under-utilized material as a tool to trigger development with dignity.

As one of India's largest non-governmental organizations in the country, Pratham focuses on high-quality, low-cost and replicable interventions to address gaps in the education system. Working directly with children and youth as well as through large-scale collaborations with government systems, Pratham programs reach millions of lives every year. Pratham’s Teaching at the Right Level (TaRL) approach has demonstrated proven impact on children’s learning outcomes and is now being adapted to contexts outside India.
