BiographySaluja was born and raised in central New Jersey where her parents had arrived from Punjab in the 1960s.[4][5] She went to the Sikh-oriented Khalsa School in Bridgewater, New Jersey, regularly attending Camp Chardi Kala in the summer months. In 1998, she graduated in marketing and international business at New York University's Stern School of Business.[2][5] After graduating, Kaur served as a volunteer in the United States Peace Corps in Kenya and Uganda (1998–2001), creating local programs in the areas of conservation, conflict resolution and organizational development. Thereafter she worked in management positions at Coach, Inc. and at Teach for America where she developed human capital leadership strategies for work aimed at overcoming inequity in education.[6] In 2007, Kaur became a member of the board of directors of the Sikh Coalition where she was appointed executive director in 2009. Since 2014, she has served as international commissioner for the National Board of Directors.[7] On her appointment as executive director, Kaur became the first woman to have led a Sikh civil rights organization in the United States. In her own words, her goal has been to bring the full force of all our program areas, partner organizations and volunteers across the country to defend the rights of Sikhs to fearlessly practice our faith".[8] Kaur is serving as a board member of the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (2008–2014) and is a member of the Desmond Tutu Peace Foundation board of directors.[7] Sapreet Kaur has a son, Zoraver Singh (born 2010).[4][9] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.leadershipdirectories.com/profiles/Sapreet-Saluja-Dir-National-Board-of-Directors-Girl-Scouts-.htm|title=Sapreet Kaur Saluja - Leadership Profile|publisher=Leadership Directories|accessdate=5 September 2015 |language=}} 2. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://sikhsindia.blogspot.lu/2009/09/sapreet-kaur-named-executive-director.html|title=Sapreet Kaur named Executive Director of Sikh Coalition |publisher=Sikhs India - Online Sikh News Channel|date=23 September 2009|accessdate=4 September 2015 |language=}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.sikhcoalition.org/advisories/2013/making-history-inaugural-prayer-service-includes-first-sikh-speaker|title=Executive Director Sapreet Kaur Becomes First Sikh to Offer Prayer at Presidential Inaugural Prayer Service |publisher=The Sikh Coalition|accessdate=4 September 2015 |language=}} 4. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.thedailybeast.com/witw/articles/2014/04/23/sikh-coalition-s-sapreet-kaur-on-learning-from-being-different.html|title=Learning From Being Different|publisher=The Daily Beast|date=23 April 2014|accessdate=4 September 2015 |language=}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.linkedin.com/pub/sapreet-kaur-saluja/88/ba8/755|title=Sapreet Kaur Saluja|publisher=Linkedin|accessdate=4 September 2015 |language=}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.sikhamericanchamber.org/sikh-women-as-business-leaders-panelists-bio|title=Sikh Women as Business Leaders - Panelists Bio|publisher=Sikh American Chamber of Commerce|accessdate=5 September 2015 |language=}} 7. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.sikharts.com/leadership-summit_2014_kaur.html|title=Sapreet Kaur|publisher=Sikh Leadership Summit 2014|accessdate=4 September 2015 |language=}} 8. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.sikhcoalition.org/advisories/2009/coalition-appoints-new-executive-director|title=Sikh Coalition Appoints Seasoned Non-Profit Leader Sapreet Kaur as Executive Director |publisher=The Sikh Coalition|date=22 September 2009|accessdate=5 September 2015 |language=}} 9. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.sikhchic.com/article-detail.php?cat=31&id=2807|title=My First Sikh Books|author=Kaur Saluja, Sapreet|publisher=sikhchic.com|accessdate=5 September 2015 |language=}} External links
