About Company

Established in 2009, SoulAce was the first professional firm to enter the CSR space aimed to positively impact social development sector. We realized that the world was beginning to discuss about ethical practices and role of corporates in the developing communities. Around that time there was a lot of speculation about ethical and sustainable social development practices and corporate social responsibility. We wanted to help corporates understand on ground issues and invest in need based initiatives and credible NGO partners. The aim was to provide corporates with resources and help them build strategy to impact sustainable community change. We also worked in capacity building of NGOs to serve the evolving expectations from CSR department while at the same time strategically serving the communities.
