It Started With Friendship

In the quiet classrooms of a 10th-grade school in Sarjapur, Bengaluru, a group of friends made a pact. They promised to stay together, not just for themselves, but for a purpose larger than their individual dreams.

Years later, that reunion sparked the birth of Sneha Sammilana which literally translates to ‘The Gathering of Friendship’. Today, those former classmates lead a foundation that bridges the gap between privilege and need.

Our Journey

1989 to 2005

The Promise

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

2015

Foundation Formed

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

2015

The Reunion

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.

Your Presence is a Gift to the Community

Whether it’s an hour of mentoring or a contribution towards an eye camp, your support fuels the spirit of Sammilana.
