About Us

Humble Beginnings

Late Mr. M.N Kasthuri Rangan & his loving wife Mrs. M.N. Geetha sold their musical company Chakkirika and decided to start a charity for higher education with the meager sales proceeds they received. What started as their pipe dream has morphed into the Swadha Foundation of today.
