Siksha Svaasthy Trust

A Timely Hand That Changes the Direction of a Life

Siksha Svaasthy Trust supports individuals and families facing financial hardship — assisting with education scholarships and urgent medical needs for those who have the ability to progress but lack the crucial support to do so.

Our Vision

Those who receive support today become the helping hands for others tomorrow.

About Us

Who We Are

Founded in August 2025, Siksha-Svaasthy Trust supports individuals and families from underserved communities through two fundamental pillars — education and healthcare.

The Trust provides scholarships to deserving underprivileged students pursuing studies at schools and colleges, enabling them to continue their education with dignity. It also extends limited financial assistance during medical emergencies — up to ₹1 lakh — to families unprepared for sudden health crises.

All donations are eligible for tax exemption under Section 80G(5) of the Income Tax Act. Approval No. ABMTS4084MF20251 · Issued 06-Sep-2025

The "Middle Step Dwellers" Philosophy

Siksha-Svaasthy supports those who have the ability and determination to progress but lack the crucial support needed to move forward — providing assistance at the pivotal stage where it matters most.

Stories of Change

Education

A Scholar from the Temple Steps

The son of a humble temple priest — who climbed nearly 300 steps every day for his duties — carried forward his father's values while pursuing his studies. With SST's scholarship, he enrolled in a BBA programme at a reputed college, has consistently excelled, and is now on the verge of graduating and stepping confidently into the professional world.

First Generation Engineer

Born to parents working in public housekeeping, higher education once seemed unreachable. Yet their son displayed remarkable talent and a deep aspiration for engineering. A generous SST donor adopted his education entirely. He has begun his engineering programme and, when he graduates, will become the first degree holder in his family's history.

A Future Doctor's Dream Revived

A carpenter's daughter scored 650 in NEET and secured a medical college seat — an extraordinary achievement. After completing her first year, her family's finances collapsed and she faced losing her dream for want of ₹5 lakhs. SST stepped in and arranged the funds. Today she is back in medical school, on her way to becoming a doctor.

MBBS — ₹5 Lakh scholarship

A Lifeline for a Newborn

At just two days old, a baby was diagnosed with a congenital heart defect requiring complex, urgent intervention. Three months of intensive care followed, with total costs reaching nearly ₹35 lakhs. SST contributed ₹2 lakhs at a critical moment of uncertainty — a breath of fresh air that helped sustain a fragile new life.

Cardiac surgery — ₹2 Lakh medical aid

Strength for a Single Mother

A single mother — survivor of domestic abuse — works tirelessly to support her two daughters. SST adopted the education of both girls, committing to support them through their schooling. This has lifted an enormous burden from her shoulders, letting her rebuild her life while her daughters study with confidence and security.

Education & Medical Aid

Growing up, I've seen my family do charity regularly and how it impacted the lives of underprivileged. This value was imbibed in me from a very young age. The smile and joy seen on faces of people of various ages and backgrounds made an immeasurable impact on me. I believe that nothing in the world can be more soul satisfying than giving back to the society that shaped us. I joined Siksha-Svaasthy as it is a very well known circle in my family. Seeing other members making a difference selflessly is very motivating for me. As it is a known circle, I am confident that the causes raised are genuine — we are provided details of people's situations and where the funds will be going exactly. I am happy to be part of the trust knowing that I am truly making a difference in people's lives.
