Story of the Trust

About the Trust

A human-centered institution rooted in Haryana, building bridges between rural aspirations and modern opportunity.

Menon Charitable Trust is a non-profit organization dedicated to social upliftment through education, technology, and health. Based in Haryana, the Trust operates with a singular vision: to provide children from underprivileged backgrounds with the same high-quality opportunities as their peers in urban centers.

Our work focuses on bridging the gap between rural and urban education by supporting initiatives that bring modern learning tools, inclusive programs, and community engagement to underserved areas.

At the heart of our work is the PB Menon Public School in Rithoj, Haryana. Through this institution, the Trust transforms its mission into meaningful action for hundreds of students every year.
