Happiness is a right.

It is not a reward for the fortunate. It is the birthright of every human being — whatever their means, religion, caste, creed or status. We carry it to wherever it is missing.

Our philosophy

Happiness is our natural state.

In Sanskrit, Ānand is joy and Bodh is awareness. AnandBodh holds that happiness is not something to chase. It is our natural state — hidden when life is weighed down by want, pain, worry or loneliness.

So we begin by removing what hides it. It is easier to lift a burden than to manufacture joy.

  1. Remove what hides happiness

    Essentials for those in want, care for those in pain, calm for those in distress and company for those alone.

  2. Health is a way out of poverty

    An illness can push a family into poverty. Good health keeps people earning, learning and caring for one another.

  3. Quiet contentment, not spectacle

    We serve people, not photographs. Happiness that lasts is calm and ordinary, and it belongs to everyone.

How giving works

This site takes no money. Every Give goes to HeartsWill, AnandBodh Foundation’s store and giving platform.

₹50 = 1 Heart

A Heart is a measure of contribution, never money. It cannot be redeemed, transferred or exchanged.

The HeartsWill store is opening soon.

  1. Choose a piece

    Pick something on HeartsWill and decide what you pay, from its minimum upwards. The page shows what the piece costs.

  2. The surplus becomes Hearts

    Everything you pay above cost is pledged to the cause you choose. Every ₹50 makes one Heart.

  3. Delivered by hand

    Volunteers hand over each item with two witnesses present. The public ledger records every pledge and every delivery.

Live from the ledger

The ledger opens with the first order

The HeartsWill ledger opens with the first order. Until then we show no numbers here. When figures appear they will come from the ledger itself, where every entry carries the fingerprint of the one before.
