My focus is on the areas of utmost need, on how we can do good for society. From poverty to health, to education, I want to offer the opportunity to improve the quality of life for billions of people. My objective is to build partnerships that bring together resources, expertise, and vision—working with the best NGOs, foundations, and programs to identify issues, find answers, and drive change.
I see individuals, not issues. I am inspired by passion and compassion for the welfare of people. My social work methods are based on logic, driven by care, results, issues, and outcomes.
…My focus on economic empowerment reveals possibility on the individual and community level. The work in the field of health saves lives, helping families and communities thrive, both today and tomorrow. Our efforts on education help ensure that individuals have the tools they need to achieve the promise in their own lives.
My interest in books, art, music, and design inspired me to start of Prakriti Foundation based in Chennai, South India. Through the foundation, we organize and directed cultural festivals like the annual Parks New Festival, The Festival of Sacred Music at Thiruvaiyaru, The 2010 Poetry with Prakriti Festival and many more.
I am also a part of the Citizen’s Run Trust since its initiation in 2006 and has seen the event grow in stature, in its capacity to spread awareness and impact lives positively. The idea of the Citizens’ Run was born with the hope of getting both young and old, the expensively shod and the barefoot runner to put their energy and money into a meaningful contribution to society at large.
In the year 2006 founded Pratham Hospice Trust intending to establish services for the care and effective treatment of terminally ill patients, and those beyond hope. It also aims to work closely with other hospices, clinics, and homes for the sick to provide such PALLIATIVE CARE.
The problems I am seeking to solve are complex and demand the coordination and focus of many – leaders, governments, communities, and individuals. The work I am involved in is challenging, but I know I can get there. Together we can work for a world where all can thrive.
