Maithri Educational & Charitable Trust was started in 1991 with the objective of providing financial assistance to needy children to pursue their education. We at Maithri firmly believe that education is fundamental to human liberation and therefore are committed to support those who cannot access this fundamental right easily.
More generally, Maithri works on a number of projects to do with the differently-abled and those that suffer from chronic medical conditions.
Maithri began as a trust set up by Rajaram Shreedhar in 1983. Differently-abled Shreedhar had a dream and an empty pocket. He was interested in supporting differently-abled people in their educational pursuits. Soon his commitment expanded to include children from poor and broken homes.
