Our Founder
Mr. Vignesh Swamy is the Founder and Chairman of Shadowbox Charitable Trust. His journey is the epitome of hard work, sincerity, determination, commitment, and dedication which eventually made him achieve his goals and attain a successful career at a young age. His Outlook towards life has always been optimistic. His belief of treating everyone equally and with respect is splendid. His vision and mission in establishing and engaging the trust among common people has been successful and the growth of trust in such a short span is inspirational.
His aim has been to make slum and underprivileged children’s life better and provide a platform for them to achieve their life goals. His effort has been to reach out to these kids and to engage with their hearts and mind. He communicates with these kids to make them feel secure, giving them hope that their voice will be heard and be prepared for life’s events and challenges in this modern age. This has been successfully executed from the start of the trust and is being continued.
He has always believed that Education is the first step for people to gain the knowledge, critical thinking, empowerment, and skills they need to make this world a better place. Children are the future of a nation. For an emerging country like India, the development of underprivileged children holds the key to the progress of the nation itself, and their education is the mainstay of this progress.
His life’s inspiration has been Che Guevara who has quoted- “The walls of the educational system must come down. Education should not be a privilege, so the children of those who have money can study.” This inspirational line persuaded him to provide educational facilities for underprivileged kids. His belief is that only education is the key to change the world of these kids.
Mr. Vignesh has proven to be a dynamic and ingenious leader by achieving his goals through which Shadowbox has grown rapidly in a short period and contributed to society immensely. He connected with many youngsters who were involved in social service and encouraged other individuals to volunteer for the projects linked with promoting social awareness and helping society in its growth and development.
Mr. Vignesh Swamy’s ultimate goal is to build schools and orphanage centers so that all the deprived kids lead a good life, get easy access to education, and manifest their talent and grow in their life. This principle approach of enhancing the young generation’s life will benefit all the kids and youth from a low socioeconomic status household and are poverty-stricken. He aspires that there should be equality of opportunity in education, where everyone has fair and equal access to a good quality education regardless of social background, race, gender, or religion, and where people achieve success in education according to their efforts and ability, free of any form of discrimination.
