About us
From a Founder’s Land to a Community’s Future
Mrs. Annalaxumy Erambu, Annaiyin Karankal (Mother’s Hands) began with a selfless act: a founder dedicating her own land to ensure the children of her village could learn. What started as a personal mission has grown into a Registered NGO (GL 00301736) with over 35 dedicated staff members.
Today, we continue this legacy in Uruththirapuram, providing a sanctuary where education is free, skills are nurtured, and traditional arts are preserved. We believe that for every child and woman in our community, Education is Breath.
