Our guiding philosophy is that WE ARE ONE. The JD Sheth Foundation is a project-based organization focusing on the education, health, and well being of adults, children and the elderly here in the United States and across the globe.

Recognized as a 501(c)3 non-profit organization in the United States, the JD Sheth Foundation was officially formed in May 2015 as a culmination of work done around the world since 2010. For every dollar donated 90% goes towards funding projects. We are dedicated to maximizing each dollar to support our efforts, no one on the board of directors receives a salary or compensation for their volunteer work, and all travel expenses/personal expenses/misc expenses related to these trips are not funded through donations, but by the individuals participating in the projects.

About the Gresham House

Named for the first American casualty of WW I, James Bethel Gresham House on Wedeking Ave in Garvin Park will now be used to help military veterans of more recent eras. Following a lengthy renovation process, the historic former museum will become home base for the Echo Housing Corp Homeless Veteran Reintegration Program. It will allow 6-8 Veterans to stay without rent for 60-90 days, letting them work and save money for a permanent housing solution.
