SUEZ Foundation - India

Together with our partners - Chintan, Doers, and the Noble Citizen Foundation - we lead awareness campaigns focused on water conservation and reducing single-use plastic. By actively engaging communities, we organise tree plantation drives, waste segregation initiatives, beach clean-ups, and door-to-door 'Save Water' campaigns.

We worked with Sarthak Educational Trust and Sapno ki Udaan for youth upskilling for differently abled individuals. In 2025, in collaboration with these two partners, we provided training to 70 beneficiaries in leadership and vocational skills to support income generation. Our initiatives included leadership development training and post-training job assistance.

We support underprivileged youth through academic and professional education, complemented by supplementary learning and awareness programs in collaboration with schools and NGOs.

Our initiatives range from e-libraries and computer training to coaching for competitive examinations. In partnership with Helpline Humanity, we support over 300 youth in Jammu, and are proud that 10 beneficiaries have secured government jobs through these efforts.

Through our Jeevika Saathi initiative, in partnership with NGO Sapno Ki Udaan, we enable acid attack survivors to rebuild their lives through sustainable livelihoods. Beneficiaries receive training in Lucknow’s traditional Chikankari embroidery and are supported with market linkages through partnerships with local vendors and retailers.

Targeted financial support enables access to essential resources such as raw materials and sewing machines, strengthening skills development. This support helps beneficiaries secure employment with established retailers or generate income through local supply chains, advancing economic independence and long-term social inclusion.  

Our healthcare programs have made significant impact:

• In partnership with Smile Train India, 174 underprivileged children born with cleft lip or palate underwent corrective surgeries.
• Physiotherapy support was offered to 50 elderly individuals in collaboration with Vridhcare Foundation.
• 555 TB survivors were assisted with nutrition kits through health department in Davanagere.

Some of the key infrastructure development initiatives we support include:

• Implementing WASH projects in community schools
• Providing sanitary facilities and computer tables to 670 students in collaboration with government schools in Mangaluru

At SUEZ in India, employees are encouraged to give back to society through a variety of volunteer initiatives. Employees actively participate in the SUEZ Foundation-India Volunteer Program, supporting community-driven projects. In addition to celebrating Daan Utsav, CSR exhibitions, and participating in Independence Day activities, we also take part in other festive community celebrations.
