    Keeping this philosophy of Sri Aurobindo in mind, the Debabrata Auro Foundation (DAF) was started by Dr. Aparna Govil Bhasker and Dr. Debraj Shome in November, 2016 in Mumbai, India. The NGO was started in the memory of (Late) Dr. Debabrata Shome, a humanitarian extraordinaire and visionary. Although, lot of individuals empathize with the plight of the underprivileged, when it comes to taking concrete steps towards their aid there is not much that we actually do.
