ABOUT ME
I am Tina Parekh from Ahmedabad, Gujarat. I am a passionate social worker eager to bring about a change through small acts of kindness. My journey in philanthropy began with a simple desire to make a difference in the lives of others. Over the years, I've dedicated myself to supporting various causes, particularly focusing on the blind, orphans, widows, and the underprivileged. Education has always been close to my heart, and I firmly believe in its power to transform lives. Through my efforts, I strive to provide educational opportunities to those who wouldn't otherwise have access. Additionally, I am committed to offering medical assistance to those in need, ensuring that everyone has access to essential healthcare. For me, philanthropy isn't just a hobby; it's a way of life—a way to create meaningful change and bring hope to those who need it most.

MY PICK
OF THE MONTH
Such a unique and fulfilling New Year Eve spent at Karunalaya , a care center for dying Cancer patients. There were 12 patients and 10 caretakers. We played, did prayers, sang bhajans and danced. It was so heart warming to see these patients with tubes in their mouths doing disco dance and garba with us. It was an honour to spend time with these bravehearts. Thanks to Karunalaya and their cooperative staff. Special thanks to all the volunteers Hiren bhai, Rashmiji, Kavitaji, Jyoti, Rupali ji, Bharatibrn, Nainaben, Seemaji, Khushi for making the program successful. We served fresh snacks and coconut water to all. God bless all of them with strength.
