ANCHAL Charitable Trust [ACT] is an independent, professionally managed institution extending effective development facilities in the field of education and health with extra attention to the economically depressed segments and, the social welfare sector in India. ACT was established in 1993 with the coming together of like-minded professionals from different areas of activity, bound together by a common goal - the 'Rights of the Child', to improve the quality of life and, enhance their capability to become productive participants in the social environment of tomorrow. This core group believed that this could be achieved only through better health, education and an enhanced capability to deliver acceptable work standards today to meet the stringent demands of tomorrow.
