Having grown up the hard way, putting myself through school, working part-time and doing all sorts of odd jobs, I am aware of what it is like for the less fortunate. Thus, I work hard to make money so that I am able to give back. At the end of the day, I do not look for glory or praise, my main goal is to make a difference in the world and to ease the plight of people who have little hope.
Dr. Malini Saba said in an interview with Forbes
“Giving is receiving, and generosity is contagious”, believes the entrepreneur and philanthropist. In her formative years, her parents instilled the value of compassion towards those less fortunate. As a child, she made sure to always donate clothes, food, and books from her allowance and to spend time at shelters.
As an advocate for marginalised communities, she founded the Anannke Foundation in 2002 to meet her goal of helping one billion people through various philanthropic activities. The foundation has been providing access to nutrition, basic healthcare, education, art, and culture to those in need, as well as creating opportunities to break the cycle of poverty and eliminate illiteracy about human rights issues.
