No-Cost Extension with Deval Sanghavi

In the first episode of No Cost Extension, Deval sits down to talk to Suparna Gupta, the founder of Aangan Trust, a Mumbai-based foundation that works with vulnerable children. Listen in as they discuss what a no-cost extension really means, Suparna's early years working with children and how Aangan grew, what she has learnt from her journey and of course, the usefulness of sitting in front of excel sheets.

Suparna Gupta (@Suparna_Aangan) is the Founder Director of @Aangan_Trust. Her career began in advertising, but when her volunteering experience at various shelters and homes from her childhood made her realize the strong need for the rehabilitation of institutionalized children, she moved to work in the development sector and founded Aangan Trust in 2001. Today, Aangan works with some of the most vulnerable children in over nineteen states across India.

It's time for India's philanthropy sector to step down from its pedestal, stop hiding behind lofty jargon, and have a frank conversation about what's really working, and more importantly what's not. After dedicating twenty years to the philanthropy sector, Deval Sanghavi, co-Founder of Dasra, is now on a mission to hold a mirror up to the country's philanthropy sector and examine why even after so much innovation and investment, the inequality gap in India is ever widening.

No-Cost Extension releases in March 2021.
