Shanti Fund
Shanti Fund, a charitable organization based on Long Island, New York is in existence since 1993. Volunteers of Shanti Fund
have been working to promote ideals & philosophy of Mahatma Gandhi for the last 11 years. At the invitation of the Suffolk
County Government, a life size statue of Mahatma Gandhi was commissioned by Shanti Fund & sculpted by an American
sculptor, Tobias Mendez. With numerous pictures of his life & peace movement as well as his well known quotations in the
background (shown on the cover of this calendar) the bronze statue of Gandhi is currently placed at the plaza level of the
County Building in Hauppauge, Suffolk County, Long Island, New York.
Following 9/11, Volunteers of Shanti Fund have adopted the resolution of the United Nations of this decade (2000-2009) “To
Promote A Culture of Peace and Non-Violence for the Children of the World” for youngsters on Long Island. Each year in
October, during several days of celebration around Gandhiji’s birthday, many children are invited with their parents, teachers
& school administrators to join us. Every one comes together & rejoices peace related activities with great enthusiasm. One
