Like so many other people, you’ll have seen Mr. Naveen Jain as being the co-founder & CEO of Intelius, Inc. the renowned information commerce company. Beyond making the Forbes 400 Richest in America list in 2000, this maverick entrepreneur has won a whole range of coveted awards, foremost the Albert Einstein Technology Medal, the WSA Industry Achievement Award, and the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award, to name only a small selection. However it surely does not end here. For Mr. Jain and his relatives are every bit as passionate about philanthropy and will attempt to assist others as often as they are able to.

All our anticipations for humanity’s future are contained in today’s children. They are moreover an all-important focus of attention for this enterprising man and he takes any occasion he comes across to help them. This is why he is always persistently taking advantage of every opportunity available to him to aid needy young people, whenever it is feasible. Thus, Naveen Jain, his relatives and his workers at Intelius dedicate their time and efforts to philanthropical organizations like United Way, Child Rights and You (CRY), and the University of Washington. Obviously they will give ample monetary assistance, but more importantly they commit their time and energies to the most disadvantaged and susceptible children. Beyond this, Mr. Jain helps by sponsoring the Children’s Hospital, dedicated to elevating children’s health as well.

With Jain being a former student of the Indian Institute of Technology and XLRI Jamshedpur, it is no wonder that teaching is an exceedingly high prerogative within his benevolent outlook. This embraces causes and charitable foundations that are local, state, and nationwide. In doing this Intelius and its CEO are helping deserving interest groups and humanitarian agencies such as the Vedic Cultural Center, the Rotary Club and the Indian American Education Foundation.

Getting sustenance over to the impoverished of the world is another critical objective for Naveen Jain and those around him and to him, it makes not one iota of difference. While Naveen is very cognizant that the aim of feeding every starving mouth in the world can seem to be an insurmountable task, he is also aware that the unfeasible can actually be quite achievable assuming that everyone endeavors towards a unified end. If this CEO should have his way, there will be a decisive conclusion to squalor and starvation on this planet in the future. One may imagine that functioning as the head of a flourishing enterprise and a devoted spouse and family man to boot would leave him little free time for philanthropic acts. Yet Naveen ensures that each and every one of his altruistic projects is given all the help he can possibly muster. This altruistic man is definitely very much more than an obsessed albeit admittedly eminently successful steersman of electronic commerce. He is, in fact, a very remarkable person and a veritable community hero.
