CRISIL Foundation's GramShakti program builds upon the successful model of a trained community cadre in Assam and Rajasthan. This innovative initiative focuses on creating a cadre of community workers through an online learning and certification programme, aimed at promoting financial literacy and inclusion at the grassroots level. The programme includes mobile-based learning in regional languages, offering engaging content, both theoretical and practical. Launched in June 2018, GramShakti leverages CRISIL Foundation's expertise in training Sakhis in Assam and Rajasthan and financial health workers in Haryana and Maharashtra. Its ultimate goal is to establish a scalable and replicable model for developing a pan-India cadre of trained community leaders, addressing financial exclusion and women's empowerment effectively.

CRISIL Foundation's CRISIL RE program focuses on a wide range of initiatives aimed at social and environmental betterment. These initiatives encompass financial inclusion, community development, education, health, environment conservation, waste management, and skill building. They include projects like financial awareness for the differently-abled, integrated rural development, holistic development through extracurricular education, creating a digital library for the visually impaired, affordable and environment-friendly sanitary care, sustainable waste management, and workshops for enhancing culinary skills and life skills for marginalized individuals. CRISIL Foundation's commitment extends to making a positive impact on various aspects of society and the environment through these diverse programmes and projects.
