Est. 9 September 2022 · Batch of 1985–1992
Hello, I am Ilanthalir!
Join with me…
From a school corridor to a circle that gives back.
It started on September 9, 2022, when friends who studied together at Aruppukottai Devangar Higher Secondary School between 1985 and 1992 decided their friendship should do more than remember the past — it should serve the present.
The main objective of this trust is to help our friends, and the people we know, who are at the bottom of society. First, this trust was created as a bridge for us to do the necessary help within our own circle of friends — a small circle. Then, with the help of friends, we will scale it up to the next level.
Ilanthalir Trust is a community-driven organization formed by alumni of the 1985–1992 batch. Our mission is to give back to society and support meaningful causes.
- Educational expenses of members' children
- Sharing information and communications required by members
Vision & Mission
Vision
A foundation for social change and inclusion, promoting the social advancement and integration of underprivileged individuals, groups, and communities in India.
Mission
Our efforts are intended to end the vicious cycle of social exclusion and poverty and to rekindle hope for a better future. We believe everyone has the right to the resources and opportunities they need to live and grow in dignity, and to participate fully in society.
What we work toward
"Any of the objects shall not be profit motive, and further, the trust will not function in the nature of conducting business activity, or for the purpose of profit."
Here's what we're working on right now
Educational Support
Supporting the educational needs of members' children, so no child in our circle is held back for want of support.
Medical Support
Encouraging healthcare development and health promotion within our community and beyond.
Trustees & Development Officers
Ilanthalir is run entirely by volunteers from within the alumni circle — proudly formed by the 1985–1992 batch.
