Our History
Panah Foundation was started in 2015 by Naresh, a young man
who had himself experienced the difficulties faced by migrant workers. He had
worked as a child laborer in a factory, hotel, and tea soap, but he never gave
up his formal education. He took a part-time job in a hotel/restaurant and
completed his graduation in commerce. He then joined a job as an admin
assistant at Teach for India, where he was exposed to the challenges faced by
migrant workers in India.
As Naresh began to learn more about the plight of migrant
workers, he was moved to take action. In 2015, he started Panah Foundation with
the goal of supporting migrant workers with basic support from a
not-for-profit. With the help of a bank loan, he started a digital mobile
office that helped migrant workers to get jobs, their rights, and legal aid in
the workplace in cities. Over time, Naresh and Panah Foundation helped
countless migrants with their needs.
