About Us

Evanjalin Charitable Trust

Evanjalin Charitable Trust empowers women, youth, and underprivileged families, creating sustainable livelihoods and transforming communities for lasting impact.

Evanjalin Charitable Trust, established in 2007 in Thingal Nagar, Kanniyakumari, Tamil Nadu, is dedicated to transforming lives through sustainable empowerment. Founded by Mr. A. Edward Raj, the Trust focuses on skill-based training and education to help underprivileged families, women-headed households, and youth achieve economic independence. Guided by the philosophy of creating self-reliance rather than temporary aid, we have impacted over 4,000 lives, fostering entrepreneurship, employment, and generational change. Through programs in education, capacity-building, and livelihood development, we enable women and youth to become catalysts for growth in their families and communities. At Evanjalin Charitable Trust, we strive to create a future where dignity, confidence, and opportunity are within everyone’s reach.

Our Vision

Creating opportunities today so individuals can rise independently and shape their communities, where everyone has the opportunity for employment, inclusion and independence.

Our Mission

Our mission is to transform lives by equipping women and youth with skills, confidence, and opportunities to build sustainable livelihoods—enabling them to create a brighter and better tomorrow.

We can't help everyone, but everyone can help someone
