Empowering Through Education

About the Trust

Mr. N. Velu to his friends — is an entrepreneur based in Mumbai, known among the people around him for being generous without being asked twice. Over the years he helped a great many people from very different walks of life, sometimes with money, more often with advice, guidance and plain encouragement.

The man who had been helping people quietly for years decided to do it permanently.

Our Achievements

  • 95 students supported since 2011 — an average of around six every year, sustained for fifteen years without interruption
  • 33 Bachelor of Engineering graduates — the largest single group, across civil, mechanical, electrical and computer streams
  • 32 Diploma graduates — polytechnic and technical qualifications that put students into skilled work quickly, often while supporting a family
  • 10 doctors — the longest and costliest courses the Trust funds, and the ones most likely to be abandoned midway without support
  • 7 Bachelor of Commerce graduates — accounting, banking and business qualifications
  • 8 further graduates across other professional and academic streams — nursing, teaching, arts and science
  • Every application is verified in person — no case is sanctioned on paperwork alone; the Trust visits and confirms the need before releasing a rupee
  • Nearly 90% of funds come from the founder’s own family — the Trust gives before it asks, and every outside contribution is added to that base rather than relied upon
  • The remainder comes from like-minded members of the community — friends and well-wishers who backed the idea from the beginning
  • Accounts are kept with complete transparency — systematic financial procedures, full accountability to both donors and beneficiaries
