Swathi Kantamani, the driving force behind NATCO Pharma’s CSR arm, channels her profound insights and compassionate ethos into transformative initiatives. Armed with a Master&#8217;s degree from Oxford, her journey was deeply influenced by the poignant narratives of African-American women, igniting a passion for societal change.
Swathi spearheaded impactful projects in education, healthcare, and livelihoods for rural communities. Noteworthy endeavours include Natco School of Learning in Gollamudipadu, Guntur District of Andhra Pradesh, and Natco High School in Rangapur, R.R District in Telangana, catering to 1800+ students from marginalised communities. Complementing these efforts are NATCO Mobile Health Clinics delivering healthcare services to remote villages in Telangana.
Swathi&#8217;s stewardship extended to collaborative endeavours with establishment of LVPEI-NATCO Eye Centre in Kothur and Natco Cancer Care Centre at GGH in Guntur that stand as beacons of accessible healthcare for the poor. Prominent hospitals like MNJ, Niloufer, Osmania, and Gandhi, continue to receive support like manpower, medicines, and fortification of infrastructure. 
Under her leadership, NATCO Trust won several accolades including the Golden Peacock Award for CSR. Swathi, a devoted mother of two, finds joy in reading and exploring art, while her insatiable curiosity drives her to advocate for collaborative efforts to enact large-scale, sustainable change.
