The Bagri Foundation Funding Opportunities

Home/Opportunities/The Bagri Foundation Funding Opportunities

Short Description

The Bagri Foundation was established in 1990 by the late Lord Bagri CBE (1930-2017). A true visionary and deeply generous man, he set up the foundation to support education and to fund relief work. Since its inception three generations of the family have continued to broaden and deepen the foundation’s scope, through a spirit of curiosity and a desire for personal growth.
