Arun Gupta has been a leader, practitioner and advisor in multitude of domains and expert in organisational development and management.

Arun is a graduate in Electrical Engineering from Aligarh Muslim University. He has various professional certifications and awards to his credit.
On the call of his 16 years old daughter to work for menstrual hygiene and women empowerment, Arun decided to bid adieu to his professional career and started Pinkishe Foundation. Without any governmental, political or corporate support and no prior social work experience, Arun relied on his passion, good intent, the goodness of people and their inner urge to work for nation building and started Pinkishe. Starting with just 1 friend, Arun called upon the women of India to support him and work for menstrual hygiene. They answered his call. Thousands of women joined, and the rest is history!

Shalini barely knew Arun when he happened to discuss with her his resolve to start Pinkishe. He was tossing the thought to a few women he knew. Working for Menstrual hygiene, a taboo subject, seemed like a huge challenge. But Shalini was taken aback by the statistics Arun shared with her. She rose up to the challenge and committed to the program. Shalini is the backbone of Pinkishe Foundation and has now dedicated all her time, effort and resources to Pinkishe Foundation.
