Darshan Arora
Founder, Executive Director  (Retired C.A, C.F.P.)
Darshan Arora had the dream of creating a charity that would help advance, support and enrich education for children in India and Peru. Being the persevering and dedicated man he is, he did many, many hours of hard work to get this charity established. He made efforts to found a charity in Fall 2013, and he continued his work finishing the final steps of registering the charity. Since then, he has been working hard to manage the charity. He is in charge of deciding where donations go, establishing partnerships with other charities, approving applications for scholarships, getting donations, accounting and more.
Scout Collins
Website Designer, Newsletter Designer, Fundraising Co-ordinator
After Scout Collins heard Darshan Arora wanted to found a charity, she was eager to help. She volunteered to design the website, and grew her volunteer work into designing a logo, sending out newsletters, some secretarial work, social media management and fundraising co-ordination. She is excited to help Shukrana grow into a better charity. She helps organise all fundraising events. She established her own Youth Fundraising Program that has gotten kids to raise over $2,700 so far. In 2018 and 2019 she ran her own camps to teach kids about getting involved, education and the environment. Scout has and always will be a part of Shukrana. She has dedicated many hours into the charity and will always continue to do so!
Jagpreet Arora
Director (M.D, B.A, C.C.F.P)
Growing up in the Arora Family, Jag, like her siblings, learned the value and benefits of a good education and has been grateful for the opportunity to pursue an education in psychology and medicine. She practises medical psychotherapy as her job. She is one of the two directors of the Shukrana Foundation. She donates and is very supportive of fundraising events as well as helping out in many other ways. She helps drive volunteers and supplies, is a photographer at events and enjoys sharing her ideas about Shukrana's projects.

She has gone door-to-door fundraising, and run bake & drink sales. She donates time, money and effort to our Youth Programs in Canada, getting her friends involved in helping out.
