Our legacy
The A.K.T. Noble Cause Volunteers Trust was set up in memory of philanthropist Late Thiru. A.K. Thagapillai to bring quality education to Kallakurichi, especially to economically weaker families. What started in 1990 as a school for 175 children is today a family of seven institutions.
One of the greatest gifts a parent can give their children is a good education. We built these institutions to leave no stone unturned.
