Bringing Light to Those Who Need It Most
Lightway Charitable Trust supports people in Njarakkal and across Vypin who live with age-related ailments, chronic illness, and accident-related injuries — and stands behind the caregivers, palliative care sisters, and ASHA workers who care for them, day in and day out.
Founded by neighbours, for neighbours
Lightway Charitable Trust was founded by a group of socially committed citizens in Njarakkal, on Kochi's Vypin island, with a simple aim: to be a helping hand for those who need one most.
We work alongside local caregivers, palliative care sisters, and ASHA workers — the people who are often the first and most constant source of care in our community.
