GGF was started in 2014 with the motive of working for the betterment of the families of the martyrs of armed forces. Through this organization, Gambhir also focuses on helping the underprivileged children by providing them with basic necessities such as food, clothes, and education.

A few months back the KKR skipper had pledged to bear the complete expenses of the children of 25 CRPF personnel who were killed in an attack by the Maoists in Chhattisgarh’s south Sukma region. This particular initiative of starting the community kitchen is yet another welcome move which has won many hearts.
