At Pia's Faux, we believe in giving back. We actively engage in community initiatives, partnering with local organizations to promote animal welfare, sustainable living, and social responsibility. One such non profit organisation is Kalote Animal Trust, home to 600+ animals,to which Pia Trivedi is a trustee. "Purchase for a Cause" is an extension of Pias vision to change the world and contribute Pia's Faux income towards animal welfare.Together, we can create a positive impact beyond our cruelty-free bag range.

Kalote Village
A Vibrant Hub of Purpose and Passion
Nestled in the serene valley of Kalote is a thriving ecosystem of purpose — home to both Kalote Animal Trust and S.T.A.R.T Academy.
My partner, Ritwik Bhattacharya (India’s No. 1 squash player), and I are deeply committed to empowering local tribal children through transformative opportunities. At the centre is S.T.A.R.T Academy, Ritwik’s elite squash training program, where young athletes — especially from the tribal community — receive professional coaching, mentorship, and pathways to national-level competition.
Alongside this, Kalote Animal Trust — led by me, Pia Trivedi, founder of Piya’s FAUX — is dedicated to protecting and nurturing animals across the region with unwavering compassion.
Together, these initiatives form a tapestry of sport, empathy, and community spirit — shaping Kalote into a beacon of growth, resilience, and shared dreams.
