As part of its Corporate Social Responsibility, Bharat Forge actively supports “Pratham Pune Education Foundation’ (PPEF). PPEF helps in imparting primary education to children of economically challenged and migrant workers, mainly in the age group of 3-14 years. Mr. B. N. Kalyani is the Founder and Chairman of PPEF. This initiative is actively funded by BFL and over the past 4 years, has touched the lives of over 50,000 children in Pune, and has become an important catalyst for women empowerment.

PPEF operates through an extensive network of Balsakhis, Balwadis, Bridge Courses and Outreach Programmes. PPEF's contributions have resulted in Pune achieving almost 100% literacy.
