Our Mission
To support programs that promote the health and education of underserved populations and end the injustice of poverty.
Our Founder
The late Dr. Rajah Karalakulasingam started the Foundation in 2017, after years of service to his community through his work as a Nephrologist (kidney physician). For years he did both local and international service work on school boards, through Rotary, and through medical service trips. Upon his retirement after 50 years in medicine, he established the Foundation to continue the work he loved so dearly.
