Our Identity

The Heart of Our Mission.

Sneha Sammilana is more than a foundation. It is a lifelong pact made in the hallways of school, rekindled decades later to serve the community that raised us.

The Founders’ Story

A tight-knit group of friends at government high schools in rural Bangalore bond over shared dreams and a common background.

Foundation Formed

Sneha Sammilana Foundation is officially registered. The friends reunite, pooling resources to start the community helping hands.

Life took us on separate paths across continents and through diverse careers but the bond of Sneha (Friendship) never frayed. In 2015, during a chance reunion in their hometown, they realised the promise they made at fifteen was still waiting to be kept.

Sneha Sammilana was born that evening not from a business plan, but from a heartfelt conversation, honoring the legacy of our mentors and the needs of our community.
