The Bhupat and Jyoti Mehta Family Foundation had a modest beginning in 1998 with the objective of empowering people through its philanthropic activities. From that start, the Foundation has grown and expanded into higher education, capacity building, poverty alleviation, and medical research. It provides educational loans to students, funds university scholarships, medical research, and child welfare projects. Today it is generating opportunities on two continents.

The Foundation remains true to its founding strategy that education is the key to improving the economic outcomes both for the individual and the wider society.
