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.

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..
