Sharing her views on the launch, Ms. Neera Nundy, Co-Founder and Partner at Dasra, said, “To drive transformative change in the philanthropic sector, one must delve into the inspiring journeys that fuel giving. 'The Philanthropist' strives to amplify these narratives, offering a playbook of insights to inspire a whole generation of philanthropic families to learn from and share each other's invaluable experiences and perspectives."
 
The inaugural edition of “The Philanthropist” showcases journeys of philanthropic families like Abhishek Poddar, Donald Lobo, Leena Dandekar, Prashanth Prakash, Rahul Mehta, Raj Mariwala, Rekha and Rizwan Koita, Ronnie and Zarina Screwvala, Usha and Radhakrishnan Sundar, Sunny Gurpreet Singh, SVP India, amongst others.
 
Highlighting the need for the magazine, Jyotirmoy Chatterji, Head of GivingPi said, “In India, knowledge about family giving is extremely limited, especially regarding approaches, vehicles for giving, and relatable role models. This magazine aspires to become a guiding compass for family philanthropy in India that is rooted in mutual learning and sharing."
