Right now you can inspire hope + fund growth
Seeing a South Asian artist get the chance to pursue their passion is truly inspiring. Building a career in arts, film, culinary science, music, or dance takes courage and dedication—and with the right support, these dreams become achievable. When an artist seeks to bring their unique voice to the world, they deserve a safe, informed space where they can grow and thrive.
By becoming a monthly supporter or making a one-time gift to the Shanti Foundation, you help create opportunities for South Asian artists to access essential resources, mentorship, and professional development. Together, we can connect these talented individuals to the support they need to build successful, impactful careers and celebrate South Asian creativity across the world.
