Humanitarian Raveen Arora with Think Human and Co-host Jim Hall with Crexendo

In this episode of Phoenix Business Radio, Host Karen Nowicki and Special Guest Co-host Jim Hall, get you connected with community builder and philanthropist, Raveen Arora. Listen in as Raveen shares his approach (and life’s work) to advocating diversity and a constant provider of opportunities, education… and a delicious meal.

Since childhood in his native India, Raveen Arora, Founder of Think Human, has lived a life of service. This includes the All India Boy Scouts Association, volunteership with Mother Teresa and the Missionaries of Charity to Tempe business owner, caring neighbor, and immigrant community mentor.

Inspired by his humble beginnings, Arora believes there is nothing more important than community involvement and social responsibility. “I am truly humbled and incredibly privileged to be selected for this honor,” he says. “This award is much bigger than me and rightfully belongs to all my neighbors on the Apache corridor who have been on this journey with me. It’s the people who matter.”

At an early age, Arora knew what it meant to be hungry after his family lost everything during war. Growing up in Kolkata (Calcutta), India he involved himself with service organizations such as the Scouts, president of the Leo/Lions Club, and other charitable works before immigrating to America.

In 2003, Arora opened The Dhaba and India Plaza, near Apache and McClintock in an area of Tempe with many challenges. Through the years, Arora has made a positive change by providing clothing, bottled water, and daily free meals to people in need. Several local nonprofits have benefited from his financial support and leadership.

During construction of Tempe’s light rail on Apache, Arora became aware of a dangerous situation for residents crossing the street to utilize public transportation, especially for wheelchair users. He responded by donating a portion of his land for the installation of an accessible ramp and crosswalk.

Arora upholds the dignity of people from all walks of life by providing jobs, giving incentives to further their education, and encouraging the very best in each person he meets. He is known as “uncle” to many foreign students and immigrants living in the area, helping them with their studies and transitioning to a new culture.

For his life of good works, Raveen has received numerous awards, including the prestigious Mother Theresa International Service Award, Don Carlos Humanitarian of the Year, and the National Restaurant Association Humanitarian Award.
