    2026/04/04

    From Global Finance to a building a school in India — Dr. Abraham George’s Story Redefines Service and Success

    Dr. Abraham George’s remarkable journey spans continents and careers. After achieving extraordinary success in international business, he returned to India to devote his life to helping the most vulnerable. In Mountains to Cross: Finding Life’s Purpose in Service, he reflects on the experiences that shaped him—from narrowly surviving a military accident at 18, to building Shanti Bhavan, a world-renowned residential school for children born into extreme poverty.

    Through gripping personal stories and a clear moral philosophy, Dr. George’s memoir delivers a deeply human message: You don’t need to be born into hardship to care about others. His work in education, environmental reform, and healthcare shows how one individual—armed with compassion and commitment—can create generational change. Mountains to Cross is a rare call to action for professionals, philanthropists, and aspiring changemakers alike.
