Indian American attorney Ajay Raju has been honored with the third American Bazaar philanthropy award in recognition of his philanthropic activities in the United States.
Ajay Raju was honored for his commitment to reviving Philadelphia through the Germination project.
The Germination Project is a signature initiative of the Pamela and Ajay Raju Foundation that recruits talent teenagers and prepares them to be tomorrow’s leaders.
The America Bazaar is a Washington DC-based online ethnic news publication that covers stories related to India-Americans.
Previous recipients of the Award include India-American philanthropist Frank Islam and Suri Sehgal founder of the SM Sehgal foundation.
The United State of America has a rich tradition of charity and giving. Last year America gave USD 500 billion in donations to charities.
Almost 70 percent of the donation was given by individuals and only five percent came from the corporate sector. One-third of the donations went for religious purposes, 20 percent went to education and 10 percent to social services.
