9. Aditya Mehta Foundation (AMF)
I am proud to announce that this is my maiden initiative in
the field of Para sports in India, by aiding three para-athletes
from across the country
The objective of Aditya Mehta Foundation is to “Care,
Concern, and Change”.
The organization has been working tirelessly since its
inception to identify and support the needy Indian Para
athletes with financial and moral support. As part of this
initiative the foundation is supporting three Para athletes
belonging to different parts of India, this month. Absolute
apathy towards Para-athletes from corporate, Governments,
NGOs, individual philanthropists etc., moved me and
spurred me to build awareness about my fellow Para-
athletes' special needs and launch this foundation to
accomplish the task.
10. I Aditya Mehta has taken this
onerous task to support my
fellow Para-athletes through
Aditya Mehta Foundation.
In future AMF would like to
expand and help all the
physcially challenged people.
