The History and Growth of LIGHT Home

When Dr. Abraham George returned to India in 1995, he was about to embark on the most fulfilling experience of his lifetime. He had been in the US since the age of 21, completed his higher education, raised a family, and established himself as an entrepreneur and professor. Although he led a successful life in the US, he was constantly drawn to the social and economic imbalance that plagued his native land and its people. Upon returning to India, he shifted his focus to eradicating the poverty and injustice that largely impacted the Dalit, formerly known as the “untouchable” caste. He founded The George Foundation (TGF) in Bangalore to carry out his philanthropic activities and pave the way towards a more just India.
