Education for Sanitary Workers' Children

Children of municipal sanitary workers grow up in poverty cycles their parents couldn't escape. We provide daily coaching, study materials, and nutrition support — so their story ends differently.

KANAVU PADIKATTU

In Trichy's underserved slums, children fall behind without after-school support. Our evening centres give them the one-on-one attention government schools can't. Dreams don't wait — and neither do we.

Supplementary Education for Refugee Camp Children

Displaced children in Tamil Nadu's refugee camps are the most educationally vulnerable. Manitham brings structured learning directly to the camps — because no child should pay for where they were born.

Years on the Ground

In 2012, Mr. R. Dinesh Kumar — a trained social worker with an MSW degree — began serving roadside elders and mentally ill individuals in Trichy with no funding, no office, and no team. Just a belief that humans exist for one another.

What started as evening coaching for 80 underprivileged children in Sempattu slum grew into a full-fledged registered trust serving children, women, elders, and refugees across Tamil Nadu.

In 2014, he joined Action Aid India to work on bonded labour and HIV-affected children's education in Chennai. By 2015, he led as Project Manager at Lebara Foundation — implementing the Sri Lankan refugee children development project with the Government of Tamil Nadu.

Today Manitham Trust runs 5 active programmes, has served 23,000+ individuals, rescued 500 wandering elders, and reduced refugee children's dropout rate from 450 to just 80.
