About

Potnis Foundation

Potnis Foundation began in memory of Dr Pramod Potnis — a doctor who spent decades bringing free medical care to villages across Maharashtra, starting with weekend camps in places like Chikli, Alibaug. He believed care should reach people who could not afford it. We still do.

Today the Foundation is stewarded by Nameet Potnis and Radhika Mehta. We work on what sits closest to our hearts: healthcare and education for people who are usually left out. Giving back is not a side project for us. It is how we honour Dad’s example and how we choose to show up in the world.

Vision

Everyone gets a fair shot at health and learning — no matter where they live.

Mission

We expand access to healthcare and education for people who are usually left out.

We support partners and build open public goods that travel — tools and programmes anyone can use, adapt, and share. The list will grow. The through-line will not: more care, more learning, fewer people left outside the room.
