Our Vergal Trust has been in service for the younger generation, rural students for the past 16 years, we are working in Kancheepuram and Cuddalore District in the field of education, enabling the children from the oppressed and deprived communities to complete the school education
Vergal trust formed by a group of volunteers who wanted to give back to society, officially in 2007, working since 2002, in the district of Kancheepuram for child welfare. We started our work to support Government initiatives of stopping child labour and include them in general stream of education. We started night schools for child labour, conducted festivals for children to mobilize and include them in regular school. Initially started with 12 child labours released from bondage and supported them to finish their schooling. So far 60 child labours released and they have completed schooling working in companies and other sectors, annually supporting 700-1700 rural students for education.
Education for all(அனைவருக்கும் கல்வி தடை இல்லா கல்வி).
Development of caring individuals, who cares for society and family, and who can lead a balanced life, with the awareness of coping with stress, empathy, with knowledge of decision making, critical thinking, and knowledge on interpersonal/ intra personal communication, with a scientific approach to life.
Our work mainly focuses on development of mental health among rural children and prevention of dropouts. For a healthy society we need mentally healthy children who can overcome hurdles and lead a balance life. Vergal works to create awareness among parents the importance of education, not valued by marks but by knowledge. we work among children by conduction free educational support centres, distributing educational aids, conducting life skills camps for adolescents, running a counseling centre for women and children.
Our greatest wealth is good memories, to fill the childhood with memories we organize tours, conduct programs to display their talents, talk to them every day, create quest for science via our educational support centers.

Storytelling, drawing, play workshops, village visits to know the importance of farming and agriculture. We also involve them in tree plantation, and knowing the medicinal value of plants and the importance of natural food.
