Nurturing wellness beyond the clinic walls
Health isn't just treating what's wrong. It's making sure people have the knowledge to stay well in the first place.
Menstrual Hygiene Programs
In partnership with Sanitation First India, AM Foundation has reached over 135,000 students under the Happy Periods Project - tackling the silence and stigma around menstruation head-on. Girls get accurate information that most were never given at home. Since school students carry what they learn back to their families, the awareness doesn't stop at the classroom door. We extend this work beyond schools too — in partnership with the TFL CSR Initiative and ZOYCARE Foundation, we run menstrual hygiene awareness sessions that include distributing reusable menstrual hygiene products, encouraging safe, sustainable menstrual care.
A 2025 survey of adolescent girls in Indian government schools found that while most had enough sanitary materials, only
AM Foundation's centres exist to close exactly this gap - free, community-based primary care in the neighbourhoods where our member companies operate.

Health & Hygiene Training
AM Foundation conducts health and hygiene awareness programmes across communities, schools, and ICDS centres, promoting personal hygiene, sanitation, nutrition, menstrual hygiene, and disease prevention. Through interactive sessions and practical guidance, children, adolescents, families, and communities are encouraged to adopt healthy and preventive practices. Sustained awareness and engagement help translate knowledge into everyday habits, contributing to healthier, more informed, and resilient communities.
Nutrition Mix
Since 2021, AM Foundation has been operating and distributing AM Nutrition Mix through dedicated units in Chennai and Thoothukudi, with FSSAI certification, to address the nutritional needs of vulnerable communities. The programme focuses on malnourished children, postnatal women, adolescent girls, individuals with anaemia, and the elderly, providing targeted nutritional support to those who need it most. With 32,000+ beneficiaries reached, the initiative has become a sustained community-based nutrition intervention. By turning nutritional support into a consistent pathway for healthier growth, recovery, and well-being, AM Foundation is helping build stronger and healthier communities.
Women's Health Awareness
Preventive care extends to women's health more broadly. Through our Women's Health and Breast Cancer Awareness programmes, we train healthcare staff and community health workers on self-examination techniques, early detection of breast and cervical cancer, and the value of regular screening and HPV vaccination — equipping frontline teams to carry that knowledge into every community they serve.
Male Health Initiative
Men often delay seeking care until a problem is too far along - a pattern our Male Health Initiative is built to break. Through awareness sessions, preventive screenings, and consultations at our AM Healthcare Centres, we encourage men to seek treatment early, move past the stigma around delayed care, and adopt healthier habits.
Dedicated Community Male Assistants engage directly with male beneficiaries - identifying health needs, encouraging screening and treatment, sharing health information, and following through with referrals and continued care. It's focused, personal outreach that brings men the information and healthcare they need, closer to home.
