Haresh Tharani
- 2012
Haresh Tharani, the principal and chairman of Tharanco Group, the parent company for various innovative fashion and textile-related companies in the U.S. and across parts of the world, gives his time and support within his industry to Fashion Delivers, a charitable foundation that has mobilized the fashion community to affect the world through fundraising efforts.
The Greg Norman Collection of sportswear for men and women is part of the Tharanco Group.
He is also a driving force behind Children's Hope India in bringing aid and academic opportunity to children in need.
An avid golfer and a member at Brooklake Country Club and Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, Tharani brings this same sense of passion, commitment and love for the game to support the New Jersev Golf Foundation in its efforts to give young golfers an opportunity to experience the game of golf.
In 2011, Haresh received the Chairman's Award from the New Jersey Golf Foundation presented annually to an individual who, behind the scenes, has been an integral part of the NJ Golf Foundation's early successes.
"Haresh's support of the New Jersey Golf Foundation is unparalleled and vital to the success of the organization, " said NJPGA's executive director, Scott Kmiec. "He has been involved in many charitable endeavors to support the game we love. And he didn't support golf to share the accolades like many others. Thanks to him, the NJ Golf Foundation touches over 100,000 kids."
"Golf teaches you about life and that's just fantastic. That's what the game of golf stands for," Tharani said. "I am truly blessed to be part of this great golf community and have it be part of the life we all share. One thing I believe in is to treat others exactly like the way vou would like to be treated yourself."
