KINDNESS PRACTICE FOUNDATION – REDUCING BURDEN OF NON-COMMUNICABLE DISEASES (NCDs) & MENTAL HEALTH VIA SUSTAINABLE LIVING AND SUSTAINABLE NUTRITION

Kindness Practice Foundation is an Indian a section 8 company (NGO). It implements projects on sustainable living to reduce burden of NCDs, like cardiovascular disease, cancer, mental health disorders and chronic conditions which are rising due to rise in stress, toxins and pollution. We empower agents of change via our Kindness Sustainability Leaders training programs as per United Nations SDGs. Kindness was founded by Dr Rachna Chhachhi, Integrative Cancer, Nutrition and Mental Health Therapist, who practises globally across 28 countries since 2009 with chronic disease patients and helped them recover and thrive via plant based nutrition and nature.

Our initiatives include:

1. Sustainable Nutrition Programs For Chronic Diseases Via Plant Based Diets. We work with children with autism, underprivileged communities like slums, villages, to spread awareness, do camps of autism, reduce burden on cancer and chronic conditions. Our community partners include Tata Power, S L Raheja Hospital, Tourism Finance Corporation India, CISF, Indian Army and doctors who help us spread awareness and implement projects in remote areas for preventive diagnostics for cancer, malnutrition for sanitation workers, conduct support groups for cancer and autoimmune conditions to promote plant-based nutrition.
