Lotus Petal Foundation Hosts 4th Celebrating Impact Conclave “Rethinking Impact in the Social Sector”
New Delhi: Lotus Petal Foundation, a not-for-profit organisation committed to transforming the lives of underserved children through education and holistic development, today conducted its fourth annual Celebrating Impact Conclave, honoring impactful social initiatives that boost quality education for underserved children. This year’s theme, “Rethinking Impact in the Social Sector,” challenges stakeholders to redefine success beyond metrics focusing on empathy, lived experiences, and shared responsibility.
Over the last three years, the conclave has spotlighted CSR partners, philanthropists, trainers, parents, and transformative student journeys. Now, amid a maturing social sector, it ignites debate on tough questions such as What is true impact? How to blend accountability with compassion? And how can community voices shape sustainable change? The conclave included a keynote by Chief Guest Mr. Ganesh Natarajan, a renowned industry leader, and a powerhouse panel discussion featuring eminent corporate and non-profit leaders on rethinking impact frameworks. The event witnessed a gathering of nearly 300 attendees, including awardees, panelists, students, parents, and staff. The students’ performances beautifully demonstrated how access to education and holistic development opportunities can truly drive transformation.
Kushal Raj Chakravorty, Founder & Managing Trustee, Lotus Petal Foundation, said, “The Celebrating Impact Conclave has grown into a vital platform celebrating collective wins in education equity. This year, we’re urging a human-centered shift from compliance checklists to stories of real, lasting change. Together, donors, implementers, and communities can co-create impact that endures.”
Chief Guest Mr. Ganesh Natarajan, Chairman and Co-Founder of 5F World and Lighthouse Communities Foundation added, “Rethinking impact means prioritizing long-term transformation over short-term numbers. Events like this inspire partnerships that empower underserved children, turning potential into promise. I’m honored to join Lotus Petal in recognizing these true heroes.”
