Bengaluru, 22nd April 2026 — In a move that goes beyond conventional CSR, Olyv brought its values to life through ‘Project Swabhimaan’, a people-first initiative in partnership with Samarthanam Trust for the specially-abled at HSR Layout in Bangalore.
Olyv strengthened its commitment to inclusion through a people-first initiative centered on dignity, respect, and meaningful human connection. The initiative saw Olyv team members step out of boardrooms and into real conversations – spending meaningful time with children and beneficiaries, sharing stories, laughter, and moments that matter.
From enabling mobility and accessibility through electric wheelchairs and hearing aids, along with 425 meal sponsorships, to creating a space of warmth and belonging, ‘Project Swabhimaan’ was built on a simple yet powerful idea: inclusion begins with respect, and respect begins with presence.
Speaking on the initiative, Jayant Upadhyay, COO, Olyv, said: “Inclusion is a mindset that inspires empathy, action, and real change. ‘Project Swabhimaan’ reflects our belief that real impact is created when we lead with empathy, listen with intent, and show up with respect. This is the kind of change we want to be part of.”
Vinay Kumar Singh, CPO, Olyv added: “At Olyv, we are building more than financial solutions—we are building with empathy at the core. ‘Project Swabhimaan’ reflects our belief that true progress comes from creating inclusive experiences that respect dignity and enable independence.”
Dr Mahantesh G Kivadasannavar, Founder & Managing Trustee, Samarthanam Trust for the Disabled & Chairman- Cricket Association for the Blind in India, added: “Partnerships like these go a long way in building a more inclusive society. What stood out was the genuine effort by the Olyv team to connect, engage, and understand. It’s not just about initiatives; it’s about intent, and today, it reflected that beautifully.”
With ‘Project Swabhimaan’, Olyv reinforces its commitment to building not just financial access, but social equity, human dignity, and a more inclusive ecosystem. The initiative marks another step in Olyv’s journey to redefine what responsible, purpose-led fintech looks like in India.
