SEF five day mega fund raiser in US
Sankara Eye Foundation, a non-profit wing of the Sankara Eye Care Institutions in India is organising five day mega fund raiser concerts in United States. During the month of April and May Bollywood music trio Shankar Mahadevan, Ehsaan Noorani and Loy Mendonsa will be touring various cities in the United States as part of the fundraiser concerts. The trio started their career together with the Movie called Dus, rose to fame together and are continuing their dream journey in Indian film industry.
"As much as they love their music, helping those in distress comes as second nature to them. They have a long association with supporting causes through their music over the years and it only continues to grow. Shankar, Ehsaan, and Loy have performed concerts as part of AIDS awareness campaigns, to raise funds for the physically challenged in Chennai and for a pediatric medical camp in Bihar, among many others. It is no surprise that they are joining hands with Sankara Eye Foundation and touring five cities as part of the fundraisers. Don't miss this chance to enjoy an amazing musical extravaganza and support a great cause in the process" the foundation said in a statement.
Concert Schedule:
April 29th in San Jose, CA
April 30th in Seattle, WA
May 6th in Dallas, TX
May 7th in Austin, TX
May 14th, Newark, NJ.

About SEF: Sankara Eye Foundation was formed as a non-profit wing of the Sankara Eye Care Institutions in India to raise funds for the noble cause of eradicating curable blindness in India. What sets them apart from a horde of other organizations is their model of 80:20 (free to paid) patient ratio. They have not only been able to follow this model, but also achieve envious results. More than 1.4 million free eye surgeries have been performed to date and millions have started a new life. The organization has organized free eye camps, internships for students, and prides itself on running the show through a largely volunteer base. A major chunk of the funds for Sankara Eye Foundation come from fundraising events which include concerts by stalwarts from the Indian Film Industry.
