# About ANNT NANDAS FOUNDATION

ANNT NANDAS FOUNDATION is a registered Section 8 non-profit in Uttarakhand, India. It is based in Mundoli, Chamoli, in the Himalayas. The legal name is अनंत नन्दा फाउण्डेशन. CIN U85410UT2026NPL021583. NGO Darpan ID UK/2026/1106277. 12A ABFCA8056ME2026101. 80G ABFCA8056MF2026102.

## Origin

The work started on 1 May 2023 as an unregistered community effort under the name Mundoli Riders Club, with two bicycles and twelve children. On 27 May 2026 it registered as ANNT NANDAS FOUNDATION. The purpose is not short-term relief. It is to find hidden talent, teach discipline, and open paths in education, sport, health, environment, women’s leadership, and livelihoods.

Every child possesses a gift. Some discover it early. Many never do. The foundation exists because Himalayan ability is not the shortage — opportunity is. Scarce sports facilities, limited educational resources, and almost no career guidance still keep talent undiscovered in remote villages.

## Founder

Kalam Singh Bisht is founder, mentor, and ultra trail runner. He served as a Naik in 4th Battalion, The Garhwal Rifles (1996–2012). His honours include the COAS Commendation Card, the GOC-in-C Commendation Card (Central Command), the Governor Award of Uttarakhand, and 1st place in the 120 KM Hajar Ultra Trail Run in Oman (2025). His public profile is https://anntnandasfoundation.com/about.

## Vision and mission

Vision: a society where no child’s future is decided only by poverty, geography, or circumstance, and where villages become places of opportunity.

Mission: identify talent, nurture it, and create lasting capability rather than dependence. When talent meets opportunity, families and villages grow stronger.
