Who We Are

Our Story, Our Mission and Our Passion

The Shruthika Women's and Children's Welfare Trust is dedicated to uplifting the lives of abandoned orphans, underprivileged children, and women in need.

The trust was founded by Lion Dr. S. Sathish, born to late Shekaran. M (HAL) and late Thilagavathi. He lives in Periyar Nagar, D.J. Halli, Ward No. 48, Pulikeshinagar Assembly Constituency, Bengaluru North, and completed his I PUC.

From his youth he was drawn towards social service — above all towards disabled and orphaned children. He earned his living as a car driver, and that early inspiration never left him.

The Founder's Journey

One Life, Turned Towards Others

The trust did not begin with a building or a budget. It began with a young man in Bengaluru who could not look away from children who had no one — and who spent the years that followed finding practical ways to help them.

Serving humanity is considered to be serving God.

  1. Early inspiration

    A young heart set on service

    Born in Bengaluru, Lion Dr. S. Sathish was moved from his student years by the lives of disabled and orphaned children around him. Long before there was a trust to run, there was simply a determination to be useful to them.

  2. Working years

    Earning a living as a car driver

    He earned his living as a car driver — modest, everyday work that never dimmed the resolve he had carried since his youth.

  3. Community leadership

    Founding Karnataka Rakshana Yuva Pade (KRYP)

    He founded Karnataka Rakshana Yuva Pade (KRYP), a registered Kannada outfit that works to promote the Kannada language, culture and heritage.

  4. Honour and office

    A Doctorate and the Lions Club Presidency

    The Lions Club honoured him with a Doctorate and made himPresident — the recognition behind the name by which he is known today, Lion Dr. S. Sathish. The trust's community marriage services are arranged with the help of the Lions Club, Bengaluru.

  5. Pandemic response

    Standing with families through COVID-19

    During the COVID-19 pandemic he provided humanitarian aid to vulnerable people — food, ration kits, water, medicines, blankets and bedsheets, carried to those who had been left with nothing when the city stopped.

  6. Sustaining the work

    Establishing Shruthika Enterprises

    So that charitable work would have a steady source behind it, he established'SHRUTHIKA ENTERPRISES' — a business unit set up to fund the service he intended to give.

  7. The trust

    Shruthika Women's and Children's Welfare Trust

    With that foundation in place, he started theSHRUTHIKA WOMEN'S AND CHILDREN'S WELFARE TRUST (R.) — dedicated to abandoned orphans, single parent children, underprivileged children and women in need, with food, shelter, education and moral support.
