Anita Choudhrie’s ‘Path To Success’ Ensuring Happiness For Unprivileged Since 10 Years



Reputed philanthropist Anita Choudhrie celebrates the 10 year anniversary of her charity house ‘Path to Success.’ The charity house helps in uplifting backward section of society and fighting against issues that require immediate attention in both India and the UK. Alongside this, Anita also founded and runs Stellar International Art Foundation which carries exclusive artefacts dating back to 19th century till date of notable artists such as late MF Husain and Paresh Maity.



Founded in 2006, Path to Success is famous for fighting for a particular cause every year and work wholeheartedly to curb the situation. To date they have collected £300,000 to allocate for various causes. This year, Path to Success decided to work for the hard working and greatly talented team of London Titans Wheelchair Basketball Club – the former training ground for two athletes heading towards Rio in September for Paralympic Games. They also arranged for a fund raiser wheelchair basketball tournament in April and the money collected from here was spent on buying new custom wheelchairs, training equipment and book venues for training sessions of London Titans. So far they have collected £42,000 for the team.

“We are delighted to have helped so many worthwhile causes over the last 10 years both here and abroad,” Choudhrie exclaimed.

“Our 60 for 60 campaign to commemorate the Queen’s Silver Jubilee in 2012 was special. Originally we planned to buy 60 wheelchairs for 60 hospitals, but we kept on going, raising more money, and ended up buying 83,” said Choudhrie.

“It was a cause that was not fashionable; people were not aware of it. We collected a lot of data and did a lot of research. We worked across the whole of England, from north to south. That was the most emotionally rewarding project I’ve ever been involved in. When you see the impact your fundraising has on people’s lives, it’s amazing.”

Anita Choudhrie is also a patron to India’s Amar Jyoti Charitable Trust, which helps disabled children in India, Trust of Learning Matters Indian and the Dhuk Bhanjani Trust. Through Amar Jyoti, which provides sporting activities and cultural enrichment to over 750 youngsters, Path to Success successfully collected £65,000.

She was also felicitated with The Globe Award by Commons speaker John Bercow in July’10 for her outstanding charitable work.

“We have always championed the disabled and we will continue to do that,” she said. “We will continue supporting good causes according to our four core principles: helping educate those who can’t take education for granted; helping people overcome their disabilities; supporting organisations which help people with long-term health problems but limited financial resources; and providing overseas aid in the event of natural disasters. We will follow our philosophy which is to help individuals overcome their difficulties.”
