INAINDHAKAIGGAL BORN TO SERVE Govt. reg. no.

458/2011 Inaindhakaiggal is an organization formed by a group of students in January 2010 with an aim to serve the poor. Most of us simply blame the system, the policy makers, and the politicians for the misfortune and poor living conditions of many. But, not many are willing to take an initiative on our own to change this society for the better. We students, the biggest community on the face of the earth, must take the responsibility to initiate this change. This thought moved us to form INAINDHAKAIGGAL. Our Aim: Serve the poor without any discrimination and work for the betterment of their living. To provide basic amenities and necessities to those in need, irrespective of their caste, creed, religion or sex. Our focus: Provide basic education to needful children.

Educate people about dreaded diseases, their symptoms and guide them to professional treatment at the earliest.
