Koneru Prasad Charitable Trust

The Koneru Prasad Charitable Trust is a combined initiative by the Koneru family and the Trimex Group. It has unfailingly taken the onus of playing a consequential and effective role in improving the quality of life of the citizens of our country. Starting out with a flourish in 2009, today, the Trust has indeed come a long way; sealing many a smile on many a face along the way.

They took a respite amid the demanding and meandering course of our businesses and operations and plunged into thoughtful Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities alongside daily routine and have never stopped since. We salute and abide by the fact that in the corporate realm, CSR is inseparable and is an integral part of business ethics and promotes the upliftment of communities. The Company has been an emergent and budding entity as part of the community and environment.

The Koneru Prasad Charitable Trust aims at eradicating rampant poverty in the country. To the Trust, the two main points of impetus are health and education. We aspire to make every child of the land literate. The Trust further stresses on making penury invisible in our land. We reach out to the most inner and backward areas with our twin thrust.

The Koneru Prasad Charitable Trust has long cherished a dream of making a positive difference in the lives of the local communities in Andhra Pradesh. The least remembered and the most hardworking set in the populace. With our CSR arms spreading wide across Andhra Pradesh and beyond into other southern states such as Tamil Nadu and Kerala, we are honored to be an indelible part in the progress of our nation.
