Board of Directors

Information about our founding directors

My daughter once asked me “What is my real contribution to society and did you do anything which made a difference in society?”. I started thinking and could not answer her question. Inspired by her question I decided to establish this organization. We were nervous in the beginning because we thought we are dealing with a community who wants everything free and always looking for deals and save money. Giving to someone something free is a last thing we can think of ..right? Let us think about it. This small giving is not going to make any difference in our lives and but will make in somebody’s life. Let us all realize the fact that we need to do more for this country apart from taking care of our family, friends, vacations and retirements.

Desi giving to Charity?

There are many Indian Americans who have donated to Charity. We are so proud of them. We have seen big charitable donations to temples. We take pride in raising donations for various causes in India. But many of us simply do not care about problems facing America. We hardly see any Desi supporting tornado or flood victims or supporting local causes in our communities. Let us think about it and do something where our children are growing.

Why it is so difficult to convince a Desi to donate?

Since migrating to America we have become misers. Even if we have fully paid house, cars, good retirement savings, rental properties, we still do not give anything to charity. Why we have become so self-centered? It makes lot of sense to take care of environment around us. Let us do something to improve lives of other people around us.
