About us
Founded in 2017, ON PURPOSE exists to use the power of communications to drive social change in India. It works with clients and organizations in 5 broad areas: Climate Action, Public Health, Education, Gender and Tech4Good.
The Culture We Proudly Offer
More than words. ON PURPOSE has been at the forefront of defining what a progressive workplace looks like. Our focus on building a safe and welcoming workplace for all has led us to innovate with policies like ‘6 days of paid leave for all menstruating employees’; 12 weeks of parental leave for all non-birthing people and a fixed lunch hour that is mentioned in our signatures. We also have a team of ‘D&I Ke Gunde’ who are trained to help us challenge our biases and create a more inclusive workplace. Don’t just take our word for it - in 2022, ON PURPOSE won ‘Best Culture of the Year’, ‘Best Diversity and Inclusion Champion of the Year’ and Best ‘PR Team of the Year’ at Campaign India’s PR Awards. We’ve only just begun and would love to have you part of our growing tribe of people committed to social change.
Don’t just take our word for it- In 2025, ON PURPOSE was recognised among the ‘12 Best Agencies in India and South Asia’ by Provoke Media and featured in the exchange4media's PR and Corp Comms Watchlist 2026 (Agencies)’. We've also received multiple honours, including ‘Best Organisation for Women Empowerment’ at the Women Achievers Summit and Awards 2025, as well as ‘Best Culture of the Year’, ‘Best Diversity & Inclusion of the Year’, and ‘PR Team of the Year’ at the Campaign India Awards.
