The Nritya Seva Foundation was founded by Rutva Desai with a vision to merge the worlds of dance and social service. Rutva, a passionate dancer and philanthropist, saw an opportunity to leverage her love for dance to make a meaningful impact on the community.

The idea for the foundation originated during a trip Rutva took to a rural area where she observed the challenges faced by underprivileged children. She noticed that these children had limited access to extracurricular activities, including the arts, which are crucial for holistic development. Inspired by this experience, Rutva decided to create an organization that would provide dance education to underprivileged communities while also supporting social causes.

In 2020, Rutva officially established the Nritya Seva Foundation with the mission to use dance as a medium for social change. The foundation began by offering free dance workshops and classes to children from low-income families, aiming to foster creativity, confidence, and discipline. Over time, Nritya Seva expanded its programs to include performances and events that raise awareness and funds for various social issues, such as education, healthcare, and women's empowerment.

Through her dedication and the support of a growing team of volunteers and supporters, Rutva Desai has successfully built the Nritya Seva Foundation into a respected organization that not only nurtures the artistic talents of young individuals but also contributes to the betterment of society.
