About the Trust
Rooted in Tiruchirappalli since 2004
Thousu Periyakkal Educational Health and Charitable Trust was established in 2004 by Mr. B Selvaraj and registered as a public charitable trust under the Indian Trusts Act, 1881. It is based in Poolangulathupatti, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu.
Over two decades, the trust has grown into a body that runs educational institutions and supports community programs across education, health, and social welfare — built around the idea that opportunity should reach every part of the district, not just its centre.
