About the HELP Foundation

HELP Foundation is a non-profit, tax-exempt organization that raises funds to sponsor abandoned and orphaned children in India, supporting programs for their education, vocational training, and foster care. Founded in 1994, the Foundation today supports around 200 school-going and 150 college-going orphaned and destitute children at ashrams across India, where the children receive food, shelter, clothing, education, and healthcare until they become responsible adults. 100% of the proceeds from this concert will go directly to the HELP Foundation.

Serving Through Music

Carnatic music, the classical music of South India, is an art form built on bhakti (devotion), melody, and rhythm — music composed not for entertainment alone, but as an offering. This concert carries that spirit forward: music offered in service, so that children thousands of miles away can eat, learn, and dream.
