Introduction
At Good Samaritan Rehabilitation and Training Center (GSRTC), we firmly believe in ‘spreading love and care’ as the fundamental expression of humanity. GSRTC is an initiative of Samaritan Trust, a registered non-profit organization committed to ensuring a ‘Happy and Dignified Human Life’. It’s our unique vision, a centre for Person with Disabilities (PwDs) and paraplegia patients for promoting inclusive development through skill-based training, entrepreneurship, and awareness creation. This perhaps is the first unique and exclusive centre for PwDs in South India.
The Genesis of GSRTC:
The dramatic beginning of GSRTC was the interaction of the Director of Samaritan Pain & Palliative Care, during his Palliative Home Care visits, witnessing the vulnerability and dependency of PwD’s and paraplegia patients. Inspired by their unwavering spirit, the idea of GSRTC was born as a center for rehabilitation and training, aiming at creating opportunities and transformation of lives.
Samaritan Trust: Making a Difference
Founded in 2017, Samaritan Trust (Reg. No: 99/IV/17) with FCRA, 80G, 12A (for tax exemption), and Ministry of Corporate Affairs registration (for CSR activities).
