Sri Arunachala Annadhana Trust serves devotees with Annadhanam and free tuition in Tiruvannamalai.

Sri Arunachala Annadhana Trust operates in Tiruvannamalai, focusing on Annadhanam, education, and compassionate service. For the past 11 years, the trust has organized Annadhanam on the Girivala Path during every Full Moon day, providing free meals to thousands of devotees undertaking Girivalam around the sacred Arunachala Hill. In addition, the trust runs a free tuition program for government-school students from Classes 6 to 9, employing qualified teachers whose salaries are covered by the trust. A future initiative includes establishing a service-oriented old-age home on land already acquired, reflecting a commitment to care for the elderly without profit motives. Transparency and accountability are central to the trust’s administration, guided by the belief that every action is witnessed by the Divine and that serving others is a form of worship. The trust’s philosophy holds that feeding the hungry and supporting those in need are among the highest forms of charity, enabling devotees to focus on spirituality without the distraction of hunger.
