About Us

JJ Karunai Illam Charitable Trust, is a registered charity that was established over the years ago by Mrs Jayanthi. It was set up in order to tackle the problems of poverty in Chennai, especially amongst young children. From its humble origins as a family institution it has grown rapidly, and now its projects cover a wide range of activities located in Chennai. JJ Karuanai Illam Charitable Trust is committed to the welfare of people from the most underprivileged strata of society without distinction of caste, creed or color. Its emphasis is on assisting the children and youth who are the citizens of tomorrow and the disabled who need a support to help them join mainstream society. Our logo symbolises our vision for the future – a future in which each and every child can look forward to a new day, a day free of hunger, suffering, abuse and poverty. We want to reach out to children across the world, to give them new opportunities, and help them rise out of poverty.
