Founder’s History

Mrs. Shanthala Nataraj, the inspiring founder of Seven Hills Foundation, grew up in a modest middle-class household in Bangalore. Her father, a man of integrity and compassion, taught her that real wealth lies in uplifting others.

As a child, she witnessed her father offering help and comfort to people in need, shaping her belief that kindness could transform lives. These formative experiences deeply influenced her calling in life.

After completing her education, she became a teacher and spent six years nurturing young minds—especially underprivileged children. Her classroom was more than a place of learning; it was a haven of hope, encouragement, and dignity.

Driven by a bigger dream, she founded her own school for underprivileged children. Despite struggles and financial challenges, she built a learning space that became a beacon of hope.

Life took a difficult turn when circumstances forced her to part ways with the school she poured her heart into. Yet, her determination remained unshakable — leading her to expand her mission even further.

• Grew up with values of compassion and service

Life of Seven Hills Foundation

In 2022, Mrs. Shanthala Nataraj founded Seven Hills Foundation in Bangalore to strengthen her mission of service. The foundation rapidly became a symbol of support and empowerment for those who needed it most.

One of the key initiatives is the organisation of health camps, providing free medical check-ups, consultations, and medicines to underprivileged families. These camps also spread awareness about preventive care and healthy living.

Education remains central to the foundation. Free education, scholarships, after-school programs, and vocational training help children rise above poverty and secure a brighter future.

The foundation also supports families with essential supplies, counselling, financial aid, food distribution, and skill-building support for women.

Through every challenge and achievement, Mrs. Nataraj continues to prove that even the humblest beginnings can lead to extraordinary impact when driven by purpose and compassion.
