Sasikala Muralidharan

Sankara is not an organization, it's a large family.

Meet Kala Murali, the better half of our CEO Mr Murali Krishnamurthy, as she talks about her experiences of being involved with Sankara's events and activities.

When You Are Down, Lift Someone Up!

"Event Management and organization come easily to women - they are used to organizing family events. So this is just on a larger scale!

At SEF, USA, Kala wears multiple hats. For over 25 years, she has opened her heart and home to the numerous volunteering families - the men, women, and children, who participate wholeheartedly in organizing fundraising events at various locations in the USA.

"I was a housewife and used to notice my brother-in-law and husband working full-time at their day jobs and then at home for Sankara. When I visited the Sankara Hospital in Coimbatore, I saw the number of patients being healed there. That's it! Instead of waiting and watching my husband work, I just joined them.

"There has never been an empty day since then, as my home is forever swarming with helping hands. Many women and even small children come and do their bit, whether it's folding leaflets, making posters, or organizing smaller volunteer groups.

"The joy we get from this is unimaginable. And we all know what we are working towards.... our vision is March to a Million by 2030. And we will accomplish that!" Mrs Kala exclaims enthusiastically.
