Under STF, I've teamed up with famous actress, Brooke Shields, to take over her Instagram page (with a following of 1.3 Million) to raise awareness for sexual health education for the #GirlsGetLoud Campaign. I've also partnered with the popular beauty brand, Bobbi Brown, for their Pretty Powerful Campaign.

SAVE OUR STARS FOUNDATION &
The Save Our Stars Foundation (dissolved) aims to eradicate child and female sex trafficking in Nepal. Together, we support the MedLove Project which led to the construction of an HIV/AIDS and feminine hygiene clinic in Samgha. Formerly hosting our own TV shows, Becoming a Voice with Shriya Boppana and Social Justice with Surabhi, on Fox5 PLUS, we evolved with the help of our local Herndon and Northern Virginia community.
Save our Stars Foundation ambassadorship has allowed me to serve on the DC Human Trafficking Task Force helmed by the US Department of Justice. Through this initiative, I work with law enforcement and legal bodies to analyze active and open sex and human trafficking cases in the DC, Maryland, Virginia area.

BECOMING A VOICE
‘Becoming a Voice with Shriya Boppana’ aired for 6 months during 2021 on Fox 5 Plus with GTV. Reaching 6.2 million households in the heart of the nation and spotlighting changemakers across America, the show brought advocacy content to DMV TV on Saturday’s ‘The Capital Forum.’ The show spotlighted social justice causes with depth such as refugee crisis, acid attacks, sexual assaults, neurocognitive illnesses, and identity dysmorphia - destructive causes painfully teetering on life and death. The show hosted popular voices from political candidates such as Deja Foxx of the Kamala Harris Campaign to Maria Thattil, Miss Universe Australia, all the way to Jared Isaacman of SpaceX’s Inspiration4.
