Kinder Trust is a Charitable Trust, registered on 19th April 2017 by a group of dedicated like minded people with the similar passion of helping disadvantaged persons. These individuals got together to
initiate a trust and see it grow into a meaningful body for those who
are truly in need.
Kinder Trust works for the welfare of differently-abled, economically weaker sections of society and
towards improving the environment we live in. We seek volunteers from society to help those who are unable to help
themselves.

Medical Care for Less Privileged
MEDICAL RELIEFKinder Trust along with Dr. Bharathy of Rashtriya Bal Swasthya Karyakram (RBSK) took 2 boys in February
2018, for surgery performed by Dr. Venkatdas. Ganga Hospital charged a very nominal fee for the
operations for which Kinder Trust is very grateful. Both surgeries went off very well and both the boys were in
plaster for a considerable period of time. They needed extensive physiotherapy, thereafter.

Supporting Differently Abled People
ASSISTANCE TO DIFFERENTLY ABLED CHILDREN.Trustees and volunteers of Kinder Trust visited the
Government run Day Care centre in November 2017. Ms. Priya (Head coordinator) of the Sarva Shiksha
Abhiyan requested Kinder Trust to assist with a vehicle to transport the differently abled children to the day care centre where physiotherapy, speech therapy and special educators were appointed to ensure treatment and improvement of the health of the
children.
Hiring of autos for transportation is beyond the means of the parents of these children. Due to this difficulty, the attendance is very poor despite good facilities
available for the children. With the gracious donation from WZO Trust & Funds; Kinder Trust has been able to
take up this request to arrange for a vehicle. For celebrating World Disability Day on 4th December 2017, Kinder Trust distributed refreshments at the
centre and made a small donation to each child..
