Community Impact
Fund Forward
Creator & Manager (fundforward.in)
I founded Fund Forward, a CSR-matching portal designed to connect NGOs, corporates, and individual donors by aligning deployment goals. Built using Bubble and Python, the platform integrates features such as API connections to Gemini LLM, automated workflows, email communication, and a scalable website architecture. This initiative demonstrates my ability to merge technology with economics, applying entrepreneurial problem-solving to bridge resource gaps in the social sector while fostering transparency, efficiency, and meaningful impact in philanthropic contributions. 8 NGOs and 6 Firms/Individuals have signed up to date, with more signing up.
TISBuddy
Program Head & Math Mentor
I founded and led TISBuddy: a peer mentorship program designed to clarify conceptual barriers and make peer support more structured and accessible. Through this program, I ended up supporting approx. 100 students across 13 subjects. Interviewing over 30 candidates to select 15 mentors made me realize the importance of building a committed and diverse team to effectively support students’ varied needs. Through implementing feedback systems and evaluating our impact, I learned the value of listening, adapting, and continuously improving to foster meaningful growth. This experience taught me that sustainable change comes from ongoing effort and collaboration, and it deepened my appreciation for the role of peer support in academic success.
Ek Taara Learning Centre, Kolkata
Volunteer / Program Leader
I designed and led a chess training program for seven students aged 9–11 during summer 2024 and 2025. Beyond teaching core rules, opening principles, and checkmate patterns, I emphasized verbalizing thought processes to nurture critical thinking, structured problem-solving, and logical reasoning. Over the course, I observed a tangible lateral transfer of these cognitive skills, reflected in measurable improvements in students’ academic performance and confidence.
Boarding Gazette, The International School Bangalore
Chief Editor
As one of four Editors-in-Chief of our school’s bi-monthly boarding magazine, I spearheaded both editorial and design operations. I coordinated content creation, conducted teacher interviews, and introduced interactive features to make the publication more engaging for younger students. I also designed and standardized templates in Canva, curating visuals and writing concise event descriptions to ensure clarity, accessibility, and stronger reader engagement. This role challenged me to balance creativity with leadership and organization, and it remains one of the experiences I am most proud of.
