"DR. RAMINENI FOUNDATION was founded in 1995 by the Late Dr. Ramineni Ayyanna Chowdary in Cincinnati of Ohio State, USA with a vision that embodies the onus of protecting and promoting the monumental heritage of Indian Culture and ideals of Hinduism. In addition, the primary mission of the foundation is to felicitate the valiant, relentless and altruistic efforts of all those high priests drawn from a cross spectrum of fields in arts, science and humanities.

After the successful implementation of its activities in US and being in the forefront of promoting Indian culture in US, the children of Dr. Ramineni thought it fit to launch Dr. Ramineni Foundation in India on the 12th October,1999, the 70th birthday of Dr. Ramineni, to intensify their social and cultural activities in their Motherland. This epochal endeavour intended to carry forward Dr. Ramineni's noble mission of illustrious patronage of Indian culture. The Foundation was launched with a felicitation function organized to honour eminent scholars, artists, litterateurs, thinkers and leaders of religious and educational thought. This maiden event served to focus the spotlight on the crowning glory of their sterling services to the continual progress of arts and sciences. The cultural program served to showcase the richness of traditional Indian art forms
