Story
“Parvathi Amma (name changed) was brought to Akshaya Trust by her son. He brought her here saying she was being taken to the hospital for treatment and he would be back in a while. It's been 8 years since that day. The phone number he gave to us was made up, even his address was false. Imagine the pain of the mother who was abandoned in such a heartless manner. She is not the only one. We have over 260 elderly parents here and most of them have faced abandonment, neglect or even abuse”, says G Gopalan, the founder of Akshaya Trust, the NGO taking care of abandoned seniors who have no one else in the world.
Without Gopalan’s Akshaya Trust, countless elderly would still be on the streets or simply deprived of the love and care they deserve. The NGO takes care of every single need of its seniors from medical care to nutrition and housing.
Your donation can enable Akshaya Trust to reach out to many more elderly in need of urgent help. Contribute generously.

Charitable donations to this fundraising campaign are tax exempted under 80G of the Income Tax Act (India).
G Gopalan, a well-to-do businessman preferred to serve the elderly than living a peaceful retired life. He says that he was too shocked to see the state of the elderly, treated shabbily by their own children.
A lifeline for hundreds of neglected elderly
Today, Akshaya Trust offers a safe haven to over 260 elderly parents, shielding them from the harsh realities of street life. This organization attends to all their needs, providing comprehensive medical care and ensuring they recover from past traumas.

To date, Akshaya Trust has served over 1,000 elderly parents most of whom were from extremely weak financial backgrounds and had no way to fend for themselves.
