Bati is about applying practical, innovative and sustainable approaches to benefit society in general with an emphasis on those who are marginalized and economically disadvantaged.
Afford To Care Enterprise Model
Social entrepreneurship is the use of techniques by start up companies and other entrepreneurs to develop, fund and implement solutions to social, cultural or environmental issues. Bati shows how this concept may be applied to a variety of organizations with different sizes, CSR aims and beliefs.
PURCHASE

GIVE
The Give Back Allies administer and carry out the supported services, empowering sustainable and responsible programs for individual and communities in need that have been identified for sustainable assistance.
PLAN
