NGO REG NO : 3176 , RJSC REG NO. CHS-602

I have been incredibly fortunate in my life to never have to experience the difficulties I see in the world every day. I can’t imagine what it’s like to go hungry – and I think it’s a shame that in a country as great as ours, anyone should.

With that desire in my heart, I preside over Open Heart. We’re all looking to make a difference in our world and I believe that by focusing on communities, we’re going to make the most substantial impact. The world is made up of these important social connections and if you foster them positively, they’ll pay huge dividends – in love, care, and a better world.
