Goa-America
Heart Foundation is a duly registered not-for-profit corporation in
the State of New York in U.S.A. This foundation was created by several
Goan professionals living in the U.S.A. who, owing to their deep affection and
attachment towards their homeland, wanted to give back something to their land
that will make a positive difference to the people in need. So they started
this foundation where affordable cardiac care is offered to the less fortunate
in Goa, India. With time the organization grew to include Goans living in Goa;
this was established in the form of a not-for-profit charitable Trust known as
Goa-America Heart Foundation Trust (GAHFT). The initiative to create a Cardiac
Center in Goa can be attributed mainly to Dr. Daniel Neville Mascarenhas, an internationally
renowned cardiologist practicing in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
GAHF approached Kairali Ayurvedic
Group with a request to get associated with their organization as one
of the silent Auction Donor. We gladly accepted their offer and got associated
with GAHF to help their noble cause. We started by providing the vouchers for our
own resort, Kairali – The Ayurvedic Healing Village at
Palakkad (Kerala), India, as one of the silent Auction Donor every year. This year
the fundraiser was held at Ukrainian Cultural Center, Somerset, NewJersy on
September 21, 2013.
