Chennai: Every human being needs food, shelter and education to survive. However, not everyone is able to get these basic amenities. But there are some organisations that are keen to help people in need. One such organisation is The Nalmanam led by Pari Baskar
and other trustees from 1999 in Villivakkam.
It is said that more than 2,000 students have benefitted because of this organisation.
With facilities like smart class rooms, type writing and indoor play area, Nalmanam provides a platform to enhance the abilities of the children. Pari Baskar said Nalmanam focuses on embracing the lives of orphan children.
‘At present we have fifteen children at our home. We take care of all the facilities including food, shelter and education. All this is possible only because of our donors. Three different schools namely Kanaga Durga school, Government High school and Ayanvaram Corporation School have agreed to accept Nalmanam students,’she said.
She further said students who grew up here are in good positions.
‘K Murugesan, former student of The Nalmanam is now working as Chef in a 5 star hotel. V Manikandan is an armed reserve police and the list goes on,’ she added.
Pari Baskar further said that the organisation has been conducting various medical camps.’Nearly 1,500 women are benefited through self employment opportunities programme conducted by us,’ she said.
