Our Vision and Mission
​
AMD Trust is dedicated to empowering marginalised women by equipping them with essential tailoring skills and providing access to tailoring machines.
Our mission is to foster self-reliance and financial independence, enabling women to create a better future for themselves and their communities.
This website will serve as a hub for educating the public about our mission, goals, and the importance of empowering marginalised women through tailoring, to provide information about our tailoring programs, workshops, and initiatives aimed at building livelihoods for marginalised women.
About AMD Foundations
​
AMD Trust registered under the Indian Trust act 1961 (Reg.no. 64/2003) with 80G (5) (vi)- order no.7162 E (35) CIT- II /TRY/2008-2009/ 13.02.2009 was founded and authored by Mr. A. Mohan Doss, the Managing Trustee. The Trust runs an aided Tamil medium elementary school for students from 1st to 5th at Tiruvarur and livelihood programmes for marginalized women.
​
Mr. A. Mohan Doss while working in the revenue department witnessed the miserable condition villagers were living in, especially women. He decided to spend his spare time and earnings through his salary and agricultural income to improve the standard of living for at least a few women. Looking at the successful results this initiative produced, he started to expand it with the help of the other two trustees.
