Chapters
Denzal Foundation Chapters advance the mission and objectives by promoting volunteerism and welfare work at local level. Participating in welfare programs is a key benefit of your membership and is supported at the chapter level through activities, meetings, and events. We encourage our members to initiate chapters in their areas to enable networking with fellow members from different walks of life, in a local, face-to-face setting. Denzal Foundation members are the key drivers of our success – and our chapters are the key vehicle for supporting and engaging our members.
Denzal Foundation, which is head quartered in Delhi, is proud to have their noble cause implemented in multiple states and cities in India. We have our presence in all major states of India.
Denzal Foundation is committed to achieve several milestones . These achievements can not be achieved without passionate leadership and tireless efforts by Denzal Foundation Execution Teams on the ground in all its Chapters in India and abroad.
To strengthen our growth and expansion, we are making our Chapters ‘Process-Oriented' and streamlined. We are committed to transforming our Members & Volunteers into Leaders, who will play important roles Nationally and internationally in the coming days.
