No person chooses to be homeless and begging on the streets. But the unfortunate reality is that many elderly people end up on the streets because they are kicked out of the house by their children or abandoned by their families. Once on the streets, they are alone, starving, begging and in danger of being exploited. P. Naveenkumar of Atchayam Trust rescues the homeless and abandoned elderly and provides them shelter, medical attention, healthy meals and vocational skills to rebuild their lives.
Your support can help Naveenkumar to feed and continue to transform their lives.

Charitable donations to this fundraising campaign are tax exempted under 80G of the Income Tax Act (India), & 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (USA).
Naveenkumar often finds the elderly in pitiable conditions. Since the homeless elderly are unable to bathe or change their clothes, they are covered in ants, flies, sores and wounds and their bodies start to smell. This makes people chase them away and even physically abuse them.
Since 2014, Atchayam Trust has rescued, sheltered, counselled and rehabilitated more than 12,000 beggars and transformed their lives with counselling, skills training and job placements. But the 80 elderly and homeless grandparents rescued from the streets are in danger of losing their homes. Your donation will help them have shelter, nutritious food and the care they need to be rehabilitated.
A home of comfort and transformation
Founded by P. Naveenkumar in Erode in Tamil Nadu, Atchayam Trust gives the rescued elders shelter, medical attention, 3 healthy meals a day, counselling and vocational skills training. In many cases, Atchayam Trust also reunites the abandoned elderly with their families so they can live out their remaining years with their loved ones. When the abandoned grandparents pass away, their funerals are conducted according to their appropriate traditions and with compassion and care.
A founder with compassion
When Atchayam Trust’s founder Naveenkumar cleared his GATE and TANCET exams as a young man, he was all set to join an MNC. But when he saw homeless senior citizens suffering on the streets in miserable conditions, it moved him so deeply that he wondered, “Why are old grandparents suffering alone on the streets like this and what can I do to help them?” That’s when Atchayam Trust was founded with the vision to create a “beggar-free India”.
Need for the fundraiser
Naveenkumar shares that “when people are born, they are happy. Likewise, when they pass away, they should be happy and not alone and miserable.” But far too many abandoned and homeless people die alone in misery and heartache. Atchayam Trust aims to rescue and care for these homeless beggars, but Naveenkumar now needs your support to continue caring for the 80 beggars in his care and reach out to many more with love and affection. “Just because of a lack of money”, he shares, “no human soul should be left all alone on the streets.”
Donate now to help Naveenkumar continue to shelter and care for the 80 elderly beggars taken off the streets and give them shelter, food, medical care and comfort to help them live despite being abandoned by their families.
