Who are we?
Suraya Foundation is a non-profit road safety organization originally based in Dubai . We have partnered with educators, the media, the creative community and families who have been affected by tragic accidents to help spread the awareness of safe driving and educating the community on how safe driving can save lives.
The founder, Mohd Shahnawaz, knows first hand what it is like to lose a loved one due to a reckless driving accident. His younger sister Suraya (read her story) was killed in a hit and run accident in March 2009. In honor of her memory, he has made it his goal to spread awareness on the dangers of reckless driving. By spreading emotionally compelling messages through awareness campaigns and mass media, the Suraya Foundation is hoping to change the attitudes of unsafe drivers and get them to adopt safer driving principles. Thus, our motto is: "Safe Driving, Saves Lives" |

Our Vision
We hope to make ourselves redundant by instilling safe driving principles on drivers. Our vision is to make roads one of safest means of transportation. We aim to reduce the rate of accidents due to reckless driving and help governments to reduce road car crashes through our campaign.
