Quality education is the fulcrum of social development. Guided by his firm beliefs, Sunil Bharti Mittal set up Bharti Foundation to provide and expand creating quality education in the country. According to him, “Bharti Enterprises, in particular through Bharti Foundation, has taken upon itself the mandate to take quality education to the rural hinterland. Additionally, it imparts quality education and training to the youth to realize their true potential and become an important contributor to economic growth. This 'cause' is shared across all the Bharti Group Companies through acts of volunteering, mentoring and donation.” Bharti Foundation's CSR is more governed by lofty ideals of improvement in elementary education for supplementing government efforts, which is inspired by its founder's firm belief that it is the quality education which holds key to alleviating society's all problems. The case pertains to the activities of Bharti Foundation for promoting elementary education as a positive force for country's social development.
