In 1977, the Jamnalal Bajaj Foundation came into existence to promote Gandhian constructive activities devoted to the national cause. The Jamnalal Bajaj Foundation has encouraged Gandhiji's constructive programmes and honoured people who have aligned themselves with the Foundation's philosophy and causes.

The Foundation gives four awards annually of Rs. 5 lakh each. Of these, three are for individuals in the country who have made outstanding contributions in constructive work on Gandhian lines, development and welfare of women and children, application of science and technology for rural development, and an international award for promoting Gandhian values outside India.

The Foundation donates to various institutions/NGOs to strengthen various community welfare activities. The Jamnalal Bajaj Foundation is also committed to rural development activities, especially in the Wardha district. The Foundation funds programmes that facilitate economic development, health, hygiene and sanitation, child and adult education, women and child welfare, and alternative use of natural resources. The Foundation also extended financial support to widows and children of farmers in the Vidarbha district who committed suicide.

The Jamanalal Bajaj Sewa Trust, formed in 1942, was the first charitable trust established at the initiative of Shri Kamalnayan Bajaj. The initial focus was towards assisting Sarvodaya workers and Gandhian constructive programmes. Later the trust scaled up its activities and established the International Sarvodaya Centre (ISC) – Vishwaneedam, over 400 acres of land on the outskirts of Bengaluru. The focus of Vishwaneedam is to improve the quality of life of the beneficiaries through various activities like:

• Organising youth camps and seminars for promoting Gandhian values and Sarvodaya activities
• Managing balwadis – a non-formal methodology for imparting pre-primary education where children receive mid-day meals, milk, pick-up and drop-off services, and health check-ups
• Imparting training to rural womenfolk in tailoring and embroidery
• Running a computer training facility
• Conducting eye camps and medical camps

Kamalnayan Bajaj Charitable Trust operates the Gitai Mandir, Pujya Jamnalal Bajaj Exhibition, and Vinoba Darshan Complex, an audio-video hall at Wardha. Additionally, it maintains a library containing literature and books on Mahatma Gandhi, Vinoba Bhave, Pujya Jamnalal Bajaj, Smt. Jankidevi Bajaj, and other freedom fighters.

Fujii Guruji Memorial Trust established the Buddha Mandir and the Vishwa Shanti Stupa at Wardha to promote the principles and teachings of Lord Buddha, Mahatma Gandhi, and other preachers. It aims to spread the message of world peace, love, non-violence and equality of all religions. It has also established Bal Sanskar Kendras to benefit underprivileged children, under the age of six, from small villages in the Wardha District.

Founded in 1914 by Late Shri Jamnalal Bajaj, Shiksha Mandal, Wardha, runs seven institutions in Wardha and Nagpur with about 10,000 students. These include colleges for commerce, science, agriculture, engineering (polytechnic), and rural services. The purpose of Shiksha Mandal is to provide affordable, high-quality education and contribute human resources for national development.

Shri Nitin Gadkari, Shri Harish Salve, Justice Ravi Deshpande, Shri Udayan Sen, Shri Ramesh Chandak, and Shri Jaydeep Shah are a few of Shiksha Mandal's notable alumni.

Bajaj Science Centre was set up in 2008 to promote science and innovation in young minds, enabling them to become tomorrow's visionaries.

One of the commemorative initiatives of the Jamnalal Bajaj Centenary Year is the establishment of the Institute of Gandhian Studies (Gandhi Vichar Parishad), a non-profit educational organisation established at Wardha on October 7, 1987. The Institute's objective is to promote and research the life and principles of Mahatma Gandhi, his predecessors, current intellectuals, and social revolutionaries. The Institute's campus also has a Renewable Energy Education Park.

Janakidevi Bajaj Gram Vikas Sanstha (JBGVS) plays a critical role in empowering underprivileged people by generating sustainable livelihood in the non-farm sector. It has developed three forms of interventions to accomplish this objective – Individual Enterprise Model, Group Enterprise Model & Skill Development, and Career Progression Model.

Under these models, the livelihood programmes focus on career progression, mentorship support (rural and urban), inclusion, outcome-led designs, and capacity building – pre- and post-employment support.

JBGVS Education programmes aim at the holistic development of children from all walks of life by providing learning platforms for children.

JBGVS aims to bridge the gap between the current and desired education situation through various internal interventions and partnerships with multiple organisations that specialise in dealing with problems that hamper the Indian education scenario today.

The objective of JBGVS programmes includes strengthening local leadership in the villages, empowering women through Self-Help Groups (SHGs), promoting local culture, rural sports, and so on. The purpose of these activities is to enable people, particularly youth and women, to continue the development activities once JBGVS withdraws from the villages. Organising Mahila Melavas (get-togethers of women) to increase interaction amongst women and raise awareness about social issues like dowry, female foeticide, domestic violence, and the menace of environmental degradation are some of the initiatives.
