Salesforce pledges INR 4 crore to support Child Education and Greenification through partnerships with Meghshala Trust, Wadhwani AI, WRI India, and Climate Collective Foundation
Jaipur, India – October 24, 2025: Salesforce, the world’s #1 AI CRM*, today flagged off the Jaipur edition of the Salesforce Run, Salesforce India’s flagship annual community run. The event, now in its third year, will be held across all the six locations in India and for the first time in Singapore. The run will bring together Trailblazers – including Salesforce employees, Futureforce interns, customers, and partners – to promote physical and mental wellbeing while raising funds to support child education and greenification initiatives.
This year, Salesforce has pledged INR 4 crore, doubling last year’s contribution, to create meaningful impact in collaboration with four NGO partners. Meghshala Trust and Wadhwani AI will help bring digital classrooms to 12,000 students across India, while WRI India and Climate Collective Foundation will support climate tech entrepreneurs in South Asia and contribute to planting 50,000 trees.
As part of Salesforce Run 2025, employees from all cities were encouraged to participate in fitness challenges and log their daily runs ahead of the main events. Till date, employees have logged over 4.4 lakh kilometers of pre-run activities.
Speaking about the event, Arundhati Bhattacharya, President and CEO, Salesforce – South Asia, remarked, “The Salesforce Run is our culture in motion. It’s where community, collaboration, and a shared ambition to give back come alive, proving our core belief that business is the greatest platform for change. Seeing that incredible energy is a powerful reminder that our collective steps create real, tangible impact. This event perfectly embodies the Salesforce spirit, defining the difference we can make together in the communities we serve.”
Jyoti Thyagarajan, Founder and Managing Trustee, Meghshala Trust, commented, “At Meghshala, we bring learning to life with teachers, who then enthusiastically apply our lessons in their classrooms. To ensure even the most remote teachers can access our lessons, we use engaging, app-based technology that empowers them to deliver better learning experiences in their schools. Through our partnership with Salesforce, we are delighted to bring digital classrooms to students across India, helping them access quality education. Participating in this initiative and celebrating the collaboration that transforms education for underserved communities is our way of giving back to the bright-eyed children we serve.”
Madhav Pai, CEO, WRI India, commented, “Our work focuses on improving people’s lives, protecting and restoring nature, and addressing climate change. The engagement and enthusiasm from the Salesforce community is truly encouraging. Collaborations like this empower innovative solutions and sustainable practices, and it’s inspiring to see such collective energy directed toward building a greener future.
