Shruti is a fundraising practitioner based in Toronto, Canada. She currently works as the Senior Associate Director of Philanthropy at Nature United.

Born and raised in India, she has spent her career working with corporates and non-profit organizations that are addressing the climate crisis, and has been involved in climate change research, sustainability consulting, program implementation, and fundraising.

She has worked with several vulnerable communities over the years, and has closely observed the disproportionate impact of climate change on their lives. However, she is hopeful that if all of us act together, we can make a difference in this battle against climate change. Shruti has a master’s of arts in economics, and a master’s of philosophy in habitat studies.
