Raj Panchapakesan Executive Council Member

Raj Panchpakesan joined SEF, USA, as a volunteer in 2000. A quote in Tamil, "Thanathil sirandadu Kan daanam," meaning the highest form of giving is donating your eyes - always resonated with Raj.  A chance meeting with Kala Murali led him to this organization that is dedicated to providing vision to the underserved.

When You Are Down, Lift Someone Up!

I will continue to collaborate with the team to drive Vision 2030 towards reality.

Raj is inspired by the devoted commitment of Dr. R.V. Ramani and Dr. Radha Ramani, the team in India, Murali Krishnamurthy and Kala Murali in the US, and the loving team of volunteers.  “I would love to contribute to the Vision 2030 strategy and am grateful to be part of a selfless organization where God has given me a chance to give back to the community." Volunteering for SEF, USA is an incredible experience that taught me about project management, fundraising, and event management, apart from life lessons like humility, selfless service, and never say never attitude”, says Raj.  SEF has given me more than I have, and I am always thankful to the extended SEF family.

Raj's leadership skills are evident in his roles at SEF, USA. As a dedicated volunteer, he has been instrumental in managing Sponsorships, Events, and other initiatives. His leadership was also crucial in the successful execution of the Bangalore and Shimoga hospital projects,  and in leading the Ludhiana Hospital project from concept to opening.

In his career outside SEF, USA, Raj is an experienced software professional based in the San Francisco Bay Area.
