About RYTHM
When QI Group began in 1998, a diverse group of people of different nationalities and cultures came together for a common purpose. Their vision was to create something that would change the lives of people around the world. Despite diverse backgrounds, they all shared a common value system and unanimously admired and respected one man, whose teachings changed an entire generation of people around the world at a time when technology and communication had not turned the world into a global village – Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi.
Mahatma Gandhi transformed an entire generation of people, at a time when technology and communication had not yet turned us into a global village. His life was his message and he propagated the concept of ahimsa, a Sanskrit term which in the simpler sense means non-violence but in the broader, more succinct sense means – all life is sacred.
This revered leader fought fearlessly for the independence of a nation that he wasn’t even a citizen of. He was one of the few men of that time, who lived his life as a true citizen of the world. It was Mahatma Gandhi’s ideals that brought together a small group of people into a multibillion dollar business with a heart.
With altruistic founders and a long history of philanthropy, it was a natural progression for QI to set up its own social responsibility arm. Hence, in 2005, RYTHM Foundation (Raise Yourself To Help Mankind) was born.
CARE. SERVICE. INTEGRITY.
These were Mahatma Ghandhi’s teachings. They speak of a world without boundaries, where people rise above race, colour and creed – to recognise the power of humanity as a whole. They speak of a world where the only language that exists, is the language of love. They speak of truth and freedom. And ultimately, CHANGE.
RYTHM Foundation is dedicated to educating, inspiring and working with others to create a brighter future for those in need. It keeps alive our social conscience, reminding us of the importance of making a difference, whether in the workplace, communities or societies at large.
Our commitment to a sustainable future stems from a strong sense of responsibility. Driven by this belief, we ensure that we are always mindful and respectful of the environment, as well as the communities we serve.

Our Values :
As part of the QI family, the corporate philosophy known as RYTHM (Raise Yourself to Help Mankind) is the value system and ideal which guides the work of the Foundation. RYTHM is ultimately about recreating the message of Mahatma Gandhi, who believed that in order to help mankind, one needs to first help oneself, by raising oneself.
A group of core values for the Foundation are to be adopted in line with the corporate philosophy but also with the aim to create sustainable and resilient solutions. These include innovation, free enterprise, self‐reliance, striving for excellence and cultivating a spirit of entrepreneurship.
The culture and approach of the Foundation and the Staff Social Responsibility engagement embraces these values and also reflect the following attributes:
- Strategic
- Forward looking
- Partnership (emphasis on the importance and value of partnerships)
- Evidence guided and driven
- Flexible and adaptable
- Rigorous
