Seethanam Foundation (pronounced as see-the-num in Tamil) was founded in 2020 by a group of volunteers, who are passionate about leaving behind a better world than the one they inherited. Seethanam Foundation's core focus is to uplift rural population and make them self-sufficient in India through a series of outcome based projects that positively impacts environment, food production, health, education, and employment.

Seethanam Foundation has chosen Ambalapattu, a village in the lower Cauvery delta region in Thanjavur district of Tamil Nadu to be its primary place of operation through 2030.

Seethanam believes by transforming one village to environmental and economic self sufficiency, we can show the art of the possible and create a growth model that can be replicated in numerous villages around the world.
