Mission and Vision:
The Parikh Foundation is a result of decades of involvement by
Drs. Sudha and Sudhir Parikh in education and health initiatives in India, building U.S- India relations, as well as in furthering the opportunities available to Indian immigrants as they settled in this country.
Give hope to those who need it most!
The Parikh Foundation is dedicated to bringing about change in the lives of marginalized communities in both India and the United States.
With more than a million dollars donated to worthy causes and organizations, Drs. Sudha and Sudhir Parikh hope to take philanthropy to the next level - building partnerships with sister organizations interested in uplifting the poor and marginalized communities whether in Mumbai or Miami; Gujarat or Georgia; Maharashtra or Mississippi. Alabama or Andhra Pradesh.
With the dual tragedies of COVID-19 and its effect on India and the U.S., as well as the death of George Floyd in Minnesota, we are even more energized to engage in furthering equality and social justice goals in our country of birth and our adopted country.
We see a window of opportunity to work more closely with US-based partners, to implement development projects that benefit marginalized Americans in inner cities and rural areas as well as in villages in India; share experiences; learn from each other, and contribute skills and strategies to overcome poverty and build self-sustaining communities that offer a superior standard of living.
