Samarthanam

In the face of initial opposition from their own near and dear ones, the Samarthanam trust came forward to fill the void and decided to get the couple married.

A young couple in Bengaluru decided to celebrate their wedding in a unique way. Instead of treating their guests with sumptuous food and extravagant celebrations, they decided to use the occasion to help underprivileged children.

Bengaluru based Samarthanam Trust for Disabled has 5,000 audio books to help students with disabilities achieve their educational goals. More are being added every day by an army of volunteers because the goal of the founder, Mahantesh, is to have the entire university syllabus available in audio format.
