We are
The Origin
Mongia Green is an initiative of the Mongia Group of Industries which have led the iron & steel industries of Jharkhand & Bihar since 1997 under the flagship brand Mongia Steel. Mongia Steel is the largest manufacturer & distributor of TMT bars & steel pipes in the Jharkhand & Bihar region.
Mongia Green was incorporated in the year 2013. Set up as a Trust, Mongia Green is dedicated to championing and advocating social upliftment of tribal communities across the country and the underpriviledged sections of our society in the areas of health, education, livelihood development, as well as socio-economic and socio-psychological development.
From The Chairman
The economic success story that our country has seen over the last two decades is nothing short of remarkable. But in this narrative of change for betterment, certain elements of our rendition for development has bred systemic inequities in our society and had, even, posed some serious question marks over the state of our society and environment.
We as sentient citizens and responsible organizations must now band together to address that dichotomy and bring in “inclusiveness” and “sustainability” within the purview of our “development paradigm” and make that an indispensable strand in a way we do our business. Mongia Foundation champions a brand of CSR that not only spells commitment towards the integration of social and economic value added solutions but also to the integration of environmental challenges and psychological challenges.
When it comes to making such real and perceptible differences on a greater scale, we believe it is imperative that individuals, organizations and industries come together on a common platform to herald a “more equal and inclusive” and varied stakeholdership of the society. Seeking excellence in our CSR commitments will facilitate the growth of this sentiment across the larger business fraternity, governments, NGOs and the society at large.
Let us join hands and raise our level of CSR commitments to the pinnacle.

Our Heart Print
What do we want to change?
In spite of the remarkable progress in economic development over the last two or three decades in India, the country still lacks significantly in overall social development. Although a significant proportion of the population has been lifted from poverty, we still have a very long way to go to ensure that the fruits of our economic success reach every strata and section of our society.
We still have many battles and wars to win to uplift all and ensure that everyone gets access to the healthcare, education, livelihood, and income that they need in order to live a happy and fulfilling life. To be a developed country, we need to ensure that everyone smiles, together.
We want to change the mindset with which socio-economic development is approached by individuals, institutions, and the Government. The mindset, predominantly dwelling on the concept of charity, often fails to bring the good to everyone comprehensively. In many cases, many initiatives for socio-economic development becomes short term and merely remain a mean for self-gratification. So while money is spent, but the benefits fail to bring in sustainable changes.
We want to change the fundamentals in the mechanism of socio-economic development and upliftment of tribal communities and the underpriviledged sections of the society. By innovating models and incorporating cutting-edge technologies and management sciences, we want to change the way we participate in socio-economic and socio-psychological development, both as an individual or as a group.
What do we want to be?
A forerunner in the process of socio-economic and socio-psychological development by innovating newer, more efficient, and more effective mechanisms for ensuring that everyone gets adequate access to healthcare, education, livelihood, and earning opportunities.
We want to be a change maker who integrates emerging and futuristic technologies with contemporary and future focused managerial techniques to uplift tribal communities and the underpriviledged sections of the society.

Our Foot Print
Tribal & Rural Development
Tribal & Rural Development
We have been involved in rehabilitation and mainstreaming of the Birhor community since 2009. Birhor community has been listed as an endangered tribe by the Jharkhand Government. On an average, our outgo is approximately Rs. 55 lac/annum in this area.
Project Santushti
Santushti is a project for the children from tribal and economically backward communities in villages with the two aims-
a. Provide supplementary nutrition
Provide supplementary nutrition to village children through a simple meal of egg, milk, and banana – essential foods which, unfortunately, most tribal children and the children from other economically backward sections of the population in the villages of Jharkhand and many other States miss in their daily meals.
b. Provide out-of-school tuition
Provide out-of-school tuition to tribal children as well as to the children from other economically backward sections of the population in the villages of Jharkhand to improve the overall learning outcome and thereby aiding in reducing school drop-outs
We have been active in:
* Adopting children of the Birhor community – this involves funding of their education, clothes, nutritious diet, primary healthcare, and all other essential needs as well as help them access various developmental and welfare schemes of the Government.
* Maintaining a hostel for Birhor community youth in Ranchi with free accommodation, food, clothing, education, and life coaching.
* Sponsoring higher studies of meritorious students from various tribal communities.
* Sponsoring various welfare schemes for tribal communities.

Education
We are in the process of establishing one of the finest higher education institutions of the country which will offer new-age and futuristic curriculum as well as pedagogy benchmarked with the world’s best.

Giving is the best way of being human
Our Future Print
Adoption of Technologies
Adoption of existing & emerging Technologies
We are working on to formulate strategies and plan implementation to source, adopt, and apply various existing and emerging Information and Computing Technologies to bring in service and process level innovations in the field of non-profit enterprise operations.
The aim is to make our operations more efficient, better compliant to process quality standards, more effective in terms of achieving project objectives, and more transparent to cater to all queries of the stakeholders, statutory agencies, and regulatory organisations.
Identify Unfulfilled Needs
Identify, Define, and Address Unfulfilled Needs
We are conducting studies to identify community development needs which might have been unfulfilled or might have been addressed in a way which leaves areas of improvement.
We have a dynamic process to identify and define needs through qualitative studies and also formulate strategies and implementation plans to address issues and provide solutions to fulfil the needs. Our studies are mainly focused on tribal and community development in Jharkhand now but we aim to scale up to all India level within a period of 2 years and to international level within a period of 5 years.
Expand the Horizon
Expand The Scopes of Reaching
We are in the process to redefine the scopes of reaching various groups of people with different and unique needs. Although remarkable work is being done in almost all conceivable areas of social, community, family, and individual needs, there are many individuals and groups with unique needs which are largely unfulfilled or fulfilled in ways which often lacks empathy and compassion.
There are many social needs which are being typically addressed by the for-profit sector. This often leads to malpractices in relation to various vulnerable groups, specially in areas which are not well regulated.
The only purpose of giving is to gift a smile
You
Give
We Only Have What We Give
Because when we give, we seed the future – for individuals, for families, for communities, and for the nation at large. We do not take any of our material wealth with us when we die but our good deeds stay on, bearing at the core the best gift we can give – that is of empathy and compassion.
Giving is being human; giving is the best form of prayer. Our fulfilment of being human comes when we live for others, when we help others smile.
Although, at Mongia Green our outgo is going to touch a figure of approximately Rs. 11 crore in year 2021, we believe that to achieve our goals of adopting technologies as well as reaching larger number of beneficiaries and reaching groups of people who are largely kept out of the scope of non-profit domain, we need significant participation from corporate organisations, institutions, and individuals.
