Naveen Jain and the 2005 Family Christmas Program
Ever the active philanthropist it comes as no surprise to know that Naveen Jain, the benevolent founder of electronic commerce company Intelius, had offered an additional funding to the 2005 Family Christmas Program organized by the Bellevue Rotary Club and Hopelink. The Family Christmas Program was created to provide gifts, toys, clothes, and groceries to hundreds of underprivileged families in certain communities. The additional financial assistance given by Naveen Jain and his wife Anu was used for the expansion of the program to two communities, namely Monterrey, Mexico and the greater Seattle area. The assistance also enabled the program to extend its help to 400 additional children. Naveen Jain currently serves as CEO of Intelius.
