SaiKripa Foundation
In 2022, Karigari’s karigars, along with Head Karigar Chef Harpal Singh Sokhi, visited SaiKripa Foundation with the intent of spending quality time and engaging meaningfully with the children there. The visit focused on interaction, learning, and shared experiences that went beyond a formal CSR activity.
Through conversations, games, and simple collaborative moments, the team aimed to create an environment of warmth and encouragement. For Karigari, the visit reflected the belief that social responsibility begins with presence and participation, and that genuine engagement can leave a lasting, positive impression on young minds while reinforcing values of empathy, respect, and community.
Sharing a Meal, Sharing Joy
As part of the same visit to SaiKripa Foundation in 2022, Karigari shared one of its most loved offerings, its signature biryani, with the children. The meal was prepared and served with care, turning food into a medium of connection rather than just nourishment. Sitting together and sharing a meal helped create a sense of togetherness and celebration.
At Karigari, food is deeply rooted in emotion and storytelling, and this experience reinforced how a thoughtfully prepared meal can spark smiles, conversations, and comfort. It was a reminder that hospitality, at its core, is about inclusivity and shared joy.
Christmas Celebration with Smile Foundation
In 2025, Karigari partnered with Smile Foundation to celebrate Christmas by hosting children from their NGO at the Karigari outlet in Punjabi Bagh. The celebration transformed the restaurant into a space of laughter, warmth, and festive cheer. The children were welcomed with a specially curated dining experience that reflected the spirit of the season.
Beyond the food, the day focused on creating memories, interactions with the team, festive décor, and moments of celebration that made the occasion special. This collaboration reaffirmed Karigari’s commitment to opening its doors to the community and using its spaces to spread happiness and connection.
To extend the joy beyond this celebration, Karigari encourages patrons and well-wishers to support Smile Foundation’s ongoing initiatives for children’s education, healthcare, and wellbeing. Contributions can be made through Smile Foundation’s dedicated page, helping create lasting impact beyond the festive season.
