The AIP Approach
Personal Philanthropy is almost never linear, it goes through its twists and turns, from initiation to experimentation, slowly gathering conviction and strength, and finally maturing into a joyful and fulfilling life experience. Just as rivers carry water, philanthropy channels resources like money or time towards causes, circulating goodwill. AIP channels the flow.
Founded in 2021 with an objective to transform the strategic giving landscape in India. AIP works with ultra-high net worth individuals and families (in India and the diaspora) to create sustainable impact by inspiring and enabling them to give more, give sooner, and give better

Our Four Pillars
At AIP, we believe in the transformative power of philanthropy to catalyse India’s progress. Our Theory of Change is rooted in the conviction that philanthropists are not only eager to make a difference but are also uniquely positioned to inspire one another. We aim to create a vibrant movement of strategic giving that drives sustainable impact across the country.
By facilitating spaces for philanthropists to exchange motivations, ideas, and experiences, we create a community that inspires and influences strategic philanthropy.
With our well-founded knowledge resources, we enable philanthropists to engage in shared learning, providing insights across sectors and highlighting effective giving practices.
We collaborate with individual philanthropists and UHNIs to craft personalized giving plans and learning journeys tailored to their unique motivations.
We champion a thriving philanthropic ecosystem, influencing the broader landscape to unlock catalytic funding and deepen the impact of philanthropy.
Partnering The Flow
At AIP, we help philanthropists move from Inspiration to Impact through our proprietary 5P Framework. This structured approach guides strategic giving, ensuring that every act of philanthropy is thoughtful, effective, and transformative.
Perspective
By fostering peer and expert convenings, roundtable discussions, and sharing sectoral insights, we broaden the horizons of philanthropists, offering a wealth of knowledge, research, and case studies that inspire impactful giving.
Purpose
We help philanthropists clarify the mission and vision of their giving through workshops and immersive learning expeditions, allowing them to deeply understand the issues they care about.
Process
We provide guidance on best practices and benchmarks, helping set up giving vehicles and ensuring that philanthropists have a solid, efficient approach to their philanthropy.
Portfolio
Our team designs evidence-based giving roadmaps and helps identify and match the right NPOs across sectors, ensuring strategic alignment with the philanthropist’s goals.
Performance
We equip philanthropists with frameworks and tools for impact assessments and facilitate partnerships with monitoring and evaluation (M&E) service providers, ensuring their giving is measurable and impactful.
