Since its founding in 2001, Serve the Women and Poor (SWAP) Trust has stood as a pillar of hope and transformation for vulnerable communities in Tamil Nadu. As a registered Charitable Trust and NGO, SWAP Trust focuses on empowering underprivileged children, women, and families through education, livelihood, health, and social welfare programs.
A Legacy of Service
For over two decades, SWAP Trust has been committed to uplifting marginalized communities with compassion and purpose. Recognized under 80G, 12AA, FCRA, and CSR-1, the organization ensures transparency and accountability in every project undertaken.
Child Development and Education
Children are at the heart of SWAP Trust’s mission. Many come from backgrounds of poverty, loss, or neglect. Through its Child Care Institution in Paruvakkudi Village and 14 evening tuition centers, the Trust provides food, shelter, education, and emotional support. Each child is nurtured to dream big and build a better future.
Women Empowerment
SWAP Trust’s Women Development Program helps women gain self-reliance through free tailoring training and self-employment initiatives. Widows receive goats, rice, and sarees to help sustain their livelihoods. These efforts create empowered women who uplift entire families.
Health and Nutrition Support
Partnering with the Department of Public Health, the Trust contributes to the Eliminate TB by 2030 campaign. As a Nikshay Mitra, it provides protein-rich nutrition kits to patients, helping them recover faster and live healthier lives.
Clean Water and Hygiene Initiatives
SWAP Trust ensures access to safe drinking water by installing borewells and pumps in rural areas. Its WASH Projects promote hygiene awareness in schools, teaching children healthy habits like handwashing and clean water usage.
