Philanthropy, charity works and CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) acts are some of the activities that not only contribute to the economic and social development of society as well as protection of nature, they are also a guaranteed way of gaining positive perception and image. This positive image often transforms into better organizational results, better sales and profitability and overall better brand value. As a result, most of the organizations or individuals who engage in such charitable or CSR activities boast them and share them with the entire media. There is often a sense of returns or profit in terms of brand image, individual’s personal image or value or organizational profitability; which are generally hidden to the common public’s eyes.

However, those who actually care about the society and the environment, stay away from the limelight event after contributing to the society and the environment and never expect any profits in return. One of these businessmen in Zambia is Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani. Dr. Mahtani was recently praised openly for his charitable contributions that resulted in the success of 2017’S African Forum Meet. It was an important meet that provided the platform for individuals from various backgrounds and fields to come together and discuss the burning issues related to the nation. The forum is held every year and is considered as an important platform that is often taken to further level at political spheres. The contribution from Dr. Mahtani was revealed by none other than the Chief Secretary of the FIWS (Fellowship International- Washington Secretariat), the organizers of the event. In the open press release, the Secretary publicly acknowledged the contributions and termed it as the sole reason for the success of the event. Apart from that, he was also praised for his earthly attitude, innovative and creative leadership ideas and friendly behavior at the event which made it even more successful.
