About Us
Pillayar Public Welfare Trust was conceived by a group of accomplished and empathetic individuals striving to return the generosity and support that the community had provided them over the years. The trust is registered in the year 2023 by the family members of late Sri K Kandaswamy Pillai and late Smt K Savithramma of Kalepalle Village.

Our Purpose
Indian society comes in various forms and flavours of culture, economic stature, and accessibility to basic rights. Though the government does the heavy-lifting in bringing opportunities to the underprivileged, a significant amount of help is still needed.
The Trust addresses the educational, elderly care, and environmental issues affecting our society.
The Trust founders realise that these three factors are of major concern across the country and need to be tackled on priority basis.
India has an aging population of 153 million ( 60 years and above)at the end of 2023, and it is set to reach 350 million by 2050. Elderly care is an integral part of our culture and societal structure. The Trust wants to support and keep our elders comfortable in their golden years. Specifically, it would,
-
Provide geriatric care and periodic home maintenance for neglected and economically challenged individuals.
-
Conduct awareness programs and set up medical camps for diabetes and other age-related conditions.
Elderly Care
The transformative power of education is unparalleled, and our Trust believes that access to education can battle most social evils. Children should be empowered to achieve their full potential.
The Trust intends to:
-
Support various educational programs that motivate the kids to go to school.
-
Aid educational institutions in fostering the education of disadvantaged children.
-
Provide financial support for motivated youngsters to pursue their educational goals.
An annual award, the “Kandaswamy Pillai and Savithramma Memorial-Academic Excellence Awards”, has been instituted to encourage meritorious students. The details can be found here.
Educational Support
The lives of most people in our country are intertwined with nature. And yet, our environmental consciousness is diminishing drastically. Striking a balance between rapid urbanization and sustainable living is vital for the long-term progress of our country. The Trust would,
-
Coordinate environmental educational programs, tree-planting, and social forestry activities in schools and colleges.
-
Promote traditional approaches and cultural practices from around the country that re-emphasize sustainable living.
