A Personal Journey of Giving Back

I started Project Surabhi because of the children who shaped my early life. Spending time in India, I saw firsthand how quickly a child’s future can be limited by circumstances beyond their control — poverty, instability, violence, and the absence of safe, nurturing spaces. Those experiences stayed with me, long after I moved to the United States.

This work is my way of honoring the children I grew up with, the survivors I’ve served, and the world I hope we can build: one where every child is safe enough to learn, brave enough to ask questions, and supported enough to thrive.

"A child who feels safe will surprise you with how quickly they grow."
Mamatha Aahlad, Project Surabhi Founder
