Chhanv Foundation is a national non-profit organization dedicated to the rehabilitation, empowerment, and social inclusion of acid attack and burn survivors in India. Established in 2013 through the pioneering Stop Acid Attacks campaign, the foundation has been at the forefront of advocating for stronger laws, survivor rights, and comprehensive rehabilitation.

Over the years, Chhanv Foundation has evolved into a survivor-centric ecosystem that provides medical support, legal aid, education, counselling, skill development, and sustainable livelihood opportunities. Our structured rehabilitation model guides survivors from crisis intervention to long-term independence through four key pillars: Reach-out and Advocacy, Medical Rehabilitation, Skill Development, and Employment and Livelihood Support.

Our flagship social ventures, including Sheroes Hangout Cafés, Sheroes Store, and The Sheroes TV, create dignified employment, amplify survivor voices, and foster public awareness while promoting financial independence and social reintegration. Today, Chhanv Foundation works across multiple states in collaboration with government institutions, CSR partners, healthcare providers, and civil society to strengthen prevention, rehabilitation, and policy advocacy.

Driven by the belief that rehabilitation is a right, not a privilege, we envision an India free from acid and burn violence where every survivor has access to justice, opportunities, and the dignity to rebuild their life with confidence and independence.
