Founder’s Note
A path to wellbeing - For a better Punjab
2015 was easily a landmark year in my life. I had decided to return home to India and to a very different Punjab. To me, the future and path to the Wellbeing of Punjab - a better Punjab- was clear.
Wellbeing is a holistic state of thriving. It relies entirely on internal elements of health, happiness, and personal meaning. It is influenced by external factors such as the socio-economic fabric and the environment that envelops us.
A healthier, more vibrant Punjab is the future that I have imagined. This is possible through making Wellbeing its cornerstone. To this end, I launched RoundGlass Foundation.
My mission is to deliver world-class standards for health, education, and empowerment to the people of Punjab. The importance of the individual, therefore, - the improvement of ‘one life’ at a time - cannot be overstated. That is why, for the first time ever, RoundGlass Foundation boldly strives to set new paradigms in Wellbeing for Punjab.
To achieve this, we will foster lifestyles and habitats that employ ecological practices; we will facilitate holistic wellness through shared dialogue and collaboration in art, sports and thought leadership; we will empower individuals and communities to actively direct their own self-learning journeys. All the while, we will be spurring the youth to collectively shape an adaptive and dynamic future.
The task is arduous, I admit. I am confident however in the cause and most of all, I am confident in our collective ability to get it done.
Our future will be as glorious as our past. I urge everyone to join us in bringing Wellbeing to Punjab and work with us towards re-shaping its future
