Education Entrepreneur
“I am enthusiastically joining “Living My Promise,” a decision that resonates deeply with my personal and professional ethos. This commitment to donate at least 50% of my fortune to charity is a natural extension of my family’s legacy in philanthropy. The Shahani family, beginning with my grandfather, has been actively involved in charitable endeavours for over 70 years. This tradition of giving has significantly shaped my approach to wealth and responsibility.
In my professional journey, particularly through my ventures in education and initiatives for low-income youth in India, I have witnessed the transformative power of strategic philanthropy. By aligning with “Living My Promise,” I am elevating this impact to broader societal challenges, advocating for sustainable change.
This pledge is more than a philanthropic commitment; it represents a proactive approach to wealth management. It underscores my belief in not just accumulating wealth but in redistributing it effectively to create equitable opportunities and improve lives.
In essence, joining “Living My Promise” is a reaffirmation of my family’s longstanding values and my personal dedication to driving meaningful change through responsible wealth distribution…”
