PSG CHARITIES

On the 25th of January 1926, the Trust under the name and style of “PS Govindasamy Naidu & Sons Charities” came into being, to cater to the growing needs of education and industry by the four sons of
Sri P.S. Govindaswamy Naidu, the Founder of the Trust.

The trust felt that illiteracy caused stagnation, insults to the people from the progressive change taking place all around and left them poor and uninformed and hence it was at the root of all the ills of the society. They struck back at illiteracy with a missionary zeal and made education as their primary thrust area. The generous and leadership qualities of the Founder and his four sons surged ahead, to the force. The zeal of enthusiasm continued and many institutions were born in succession in various disciplines.
