Chairperson, Adani Foundation

Dr Priti G Adani is the Chairperson of the Adani Foundation, one of India’s largest and most well-known organisations in the non-profit social sector. She has been spearheading social development initiatives as Adani Foundation’s chairperson for more than two decades.

An educationist and a qualified doctor with Bachelors in Dental Surgery (BDS), Dr. Priti Adani has been treading a path hitherto less travelled in the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) space. Focusing on the mantra of Growth with Goodness, Dr. Adani is as much a businesswoman as she is a responsible citizen helping create sustainable solutions to complex problems.

She has been spearheading Adani Foundation, her brainchild, passionately for two decades now – ensuring that the Adani Group helps transform the lives of as many people as possible.

Under her guidance and leadership, Adani Foundation has been carrying out its activities in four core areas namely, Education, Community Health, Sustainable Livelihood Development, and Infrastructure Development. At present, the Foundation is helping uplift 3.4 million people annually across 18 states of the country.

While it’s Gautam Adani’s 60th birthday, (Priti Adani who tied the knot with Gautam Adani 36 years ago) it is also the centenary birth anniversary of his father Shantilal Adani. On this special occasion, the Adani family has committed a donation of Rs. 60,000 crore to a range of social causes. This corpus will be administered by the Adani Foundation.
