Volunteering
We value your time more than ours… more often than not when an inclination to help sets in noble- minded people, good Samaritans often appear clueless on where to start from, how to start, who to reach out to… we are here to alleviate those concern of yours & get you started in more than 1 ways. Edmund Hillary couldn’t have climbed the Mount Everest without a Sherpa by name Tenzing assisting him all the way. Furthering that thought… we believe that for us to impact & improve more lives in our neighbourhood, we need our Sherpas. So, you can help us by being Sherpas for our cause, the organization (Sri Subramanya Charitable Trust, SSCT) and the work we do. You can refer your friends & relatives to our website, introduce them to our blog and also if they are interested ask them to enrol with our mailing list, so they can get updates from us on a timely basis sharing the work that is done by our ground staff impacting lives & livelihoods of people of our neighbourhood (Ayikudy-Tenkasi-Tamil Nadu-India).
1. Trust is built primarily on ones action as well as good words from the well-wishers like you… hence you can help us by spreading the word about SSCT to your colleagues at work:
o Refer SSCT to companies of your knowing that offer social-welfare projects.
o Request for flyers & brochures from us to post on your work-place information boards, news-bulletin calendar to grab your noble-minded colleagues’ attention who wanted to make a difference.
o You can increase the sound-bytes on us, amplify our messages by sharing info. on us in your WhatsApp / Twitter / FB groups / Hobby-groups etc. that you are part of… as spreading the word is primarily what will build a sense of pride & act as a necessary motivation of our staff, volunteers to continue to do bigger & better things for the betterment of their neighbourhoods.
o Assist us in accessing matching grants that companies offer as part of their societal good-will initiatives.
o You can do Payroll contribution on a monthly basis and assist us in recruiting your employers as our Partners to assist via their CSR funds for the cause.
2. As they say… seeing is believing, we invite you to visit us, SSCT @Ayikudy-Tenkasi when possible, just for a day or a few hours. A personal visit will truly enhance your visibility to the work we do, and cherishable moment for our beneficiaries who are kids, women & elderly from the neighbourhood. They & us alike strongly believe that we can learn a lot from each visitor, each visit. Southern Tamil Nadu is known for its windmills, western-ghats, breeze through-out the year (and hence the windmills) & of course the famous 700-800 year old temple built by the Pandya dynasty & iconic Courtrallam falls. You can make it all a tour to remember for you & your family.
3. You can have your friends, relatives & like-minded acquaintances consider donating to SSCT in your name for any important events in your life like kid’s birthdays, birthday milestones (30th, 40th, 50th, 60th, … birthdays), marriage, anniversaries, or any other event. Donations in all amounts are welcome, and donations made in India are tax exempt.
4. Lastly… as our activities today are centered around Elderly Assistance, Women Upliftment, Child Empowerment… your time can be also in visiting our site for imparting training on unique skills you may possess like a dance form, finance, entrepreneurship, motivational things, moral value incubation etc. We welcome Volunteers and Interns to spread the positivity, about us & about our programs. While the grassroot teams continue their day-to-day challenge of impacting lives & livelihoods in Tenkasi, Tamil Nadu… you could be our BRANDSTERs / SHERPAs!
