A Legacy of Giving

The Sunny Foundation

Restoring those who give the most — through the healing power of rest, nature, and community.

Our Mission

Opening doors, in Sunny’s spirit

The Sunny Foundation was created by his family to honor Adarsh “Sunny” Hari — a Guyanese educator who founded a school, taught for a decade, and believed his whole life that education is the ticket to a successful future. Carrying that belief forward, the foundation champions education and scholarships while offering restorative retreats to those who give the most and too often forget to care for themselves.

Who We Serve

Our vision for the retreat

We open the doors of the retreat to those whose service and sacrifice deserve honor and rest.

Veterans

A tranquil space for those who served to decompress, reconnect, and heal.

First Responders

Rest and renewal for the firefighters, police, and EMS who answer every call.

Caregivers

Respite for those who give tirelessly caring for family and community.

Youth

Enrichment and mentorship experiences for young people seeking direction.

How the foundation gives back

Guided by Sunny’s lifelong devotion to education, the foundation is building programs that open doors and renew the spirit — at home in Texas and in his native Guyana.

  • Education Scholarships — continuing Sunny’s support for students in the United States and Guyana.
  • Sponsored Retreats — complimentary countryside stays for qualifying veterans, first responders, and caregivers.
  • Youth Mentorship — enrichment and guidance for young people seeking direction.
  • Community Partnerships — collaborating with organizations that serve those in need.
