Our Story

Many elders waiting patiently in queue to collect their meager pension which would then be taken away by their children waiting outside, a scene which Mrs. Bhageerathy Ramamoorthy, Managing Trustee, became accustomed to almost every day during her tenure at Indian Bank. Her interactions with these elders revealed the bitter fact that many senior citizens seldom had any control over what was rightfully theirs and this had a lasting impact on her. If this was the experience of those with children and some financial security, what would be the plight of those who neither had children nor money! Thus was born a desire to help and serve elders with no children or any source of income.

Anandam Trust was registered in 1995 to financially and physically support deserving poor elders. Anandam, a Free Home for Senior Citizens was started in 2003 in a modest scale with 3 elders. With efforts from the management and support from well-wishers, this has grown into a Model Home, accommodating 105 elders in a sprawling campus of 24000 sq.ft. in 15 grounds of land.

Today, Anandam has expanded its services to include free educational support for the poor and deserving students, quality, free medical care for people from the lower strata of society and free Special Education for children with learning disabilities.

Testimonials

What our patrons have to say...

“I have been associated with Anandam Trust for over 5 years in various ways and it gives me great pleasure to share my views.

Anandam has been driven by the passion and commitment of the founder and the trustees and it is an outstanding example of how much a few people can accomplish with nothing more than passion and drive.

Their services are rendered with compassion, care and integrity. Whether it is the old age home, education or medical services, the quality of their care and facilities, their treatment of everyone like family and the camaraderie you sense when you interact with anyone associated with them stand testimony to the values on which Anandam is founded.I sincerely wish and pray that they continue to get adequate support to grow and extend their caring hands to a much greater extent than they do now.”
