Mausumi and Sanjay live in Princeton, NJ. Mausumi is a strategy executive at JP Morgan Chase. Sanjay is a graduate alumni of Princeton University and currently works as a Portfolio Manager at Millennium Management. Both are passionate about philanthropy in the education sector and long term supporters of Khan Academy, Princeton, and IIT.
When the Covid lockdown hit India, Sanjay and Mausumi worked closely with various charitable organizations to send support to the daily wage workers to provide 20K masks and ~250K meals to 12 villages. During this time, they met Kolkata Foundation and immediately connected with the team at many levels.
The nonprofit selection process that Kolkata Foundation follows is meticulous, finding exceptional organizations working on educational excellence, medical support and self reliance. These NGOs did not have large overheads and provided transparency. It was exactly what Mausumi and Sanjay were looking for, as they extended their support.
Their children Sabar, Emily, and Navin are involved in various social works and wish to continue carrying out the passion of their parents.
