Our Story

In 2003, the first PAN IIT alumni conference was held in Silicon Valley, CA where Bill Gates, the keynote speaker recognized the alumni of Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) as the leaders in innovation and technology globally. The event was covered by CBS in its famed “60 minutes” series by correspondent Lesley Stahl, making PAN IIT a household name in the United States.

During the planning phase of “Giveback to America” project in 2009, it was realized that a not for profit organization must be formed to distinguish from the mission of PAN IIT Alumni Foundation, giving rise to WHEELS Global Foundation (WGF).

In 2013, WGF was founded as an independent 501c3 to provide innovative technology driven solutions to the challenges that affect the global rural population in six areas; Water, Healthcare, Energy, Education, Livelihood and Sustainability.

To support the initiatives of WGF and to closely work with the communities here in India, WHEELS Global India was established by Pan IIT Alumni under Section 25 as a sister concern of WGF with a mission to give back to rural India.

Our goal is to increase access, communication, and funding for technologies and/or charitable missions aimed at improving the living conditions of citizens across the globe through the implementation of sustainable programs.

Our mission is to give back to India, USA and to global communities by providing technological solutions to issues related with water, health, energy, education, livelihood, and sustainability.
