Enabling Good Vol 28
This month, we welcomed two new AIP Founders—Dr. Madhu Mohan, whose life's work sits at the intersection of medicine and access, and Kailash Nadh, who brings a rare combination of technology, ecology, and open knowledge to the act of giving. Their journeys, like those of every AIP Founder and network member, are a reminder that giving takes many forms, and that each one counts.

We also collaborated with The Convergence Foundation and SCALE for the launch of Turning Points, a book that traces how eleven philanthropists made the journey from individual giving to systemic change.

Over the past few weeks, we were reminded that philanthropy is as much about reflection as it is about action. Together with Tanya and Vishal Bali, we co-hosted a session in Bengaluru, featuring Peggy Dulany in conversation with Ajit Isaac. Marked by a rare candour, the discussion was a reminder that giving often begins with deeply personal questions before it translates into public impact.

October was an important and eventful month at AIP. After over a year of massive effort, best selling author - Rashmi Bansal’s book – “Live to Give”, got launched. AIP had the privilege of collaborating with Rashmi to facilitate and disseminate this book. Across Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru, over 125 philanthropists and ecosystem partners joined us to celebrate stories of 16 philanthropists who are redefining what it means to give with intent. The energy in each city — the conversations, the reflections, the shared hope, was a testament to how India’s giving movement is growing bolder and more strategic.
