An NIT Trichy graduate, Murali earned a Master’s degree in Computer Science from the Southern Illinois University, Carbondale. He worked in the IT industry in the San Francisco Bay Area and founded SEF, USA in 1998 to raise funds to support the mission of SEF, India.
In 2009, Murali took up a full-time position at SEF, USA. Under his leadership, SEF, USA grew to be the largest free eye care provider in the world with a network of 27 hospitals in 14 states in India and a capacity for over 600,000 free surgeries annually.
“Being at Sankara is highly satisfying. We encounter many old people at the hospitals, whose own kids have abandoned them, but the care and kindness they receive from Sankara team is life-changing for them.
There is no other joy I would look forward to!”

"I initially started volunteering, thinking that I would be able to make people’s lives better.
Little did I know then that this work would enrich my own life and bring so much happiness to me.
What I have received from Sankara is way more than what I might have given back!”
