“If you can't feed a hundred people, then feed just one.”
- Mother Teresa
ORGIN AND HISTORY OF DIVINE CHARITABLE TRUST
The birth of Divine Charitable Trust. In 1993 Mr. Y. Vincent Reddy
was fortunate in getting a invitation to attend a convention at
Chennai, in which Mother Theresa was a participant. An air of sanctity
filled the venue as the Mother stood to give her message at the
convention. She said, “Whatever you do the poorest of poor, is what
you do to God.” These words got into his heart with great impact. The
insight that he experienced was this: serving the deprived ones is the
best way to fulfill the will of God on earth.
A struggle ensued within himself for considerable period of time. The
spark that the Mother blew into his heart through her words refused to
be put out, and turned into a flame within a few months. This flame
kept on asking him as to how he intendes to fulfill his responsibility
towards the neighbours, especially the ones suffering from deprivation
in the society.
His conscience dictated to him that it was unfair to work and live
only for the sake of his own family, while so many others lived around
him in poverty and distress.This thought helped him to take decisions
quickly. He gave up his regular job to start a service –providing
business by employing a few youngsters.The major portion of the profit
from the business went into the aid of destitute homes. Then came the
vision of Divine Charitable Trust. In 2005 DCT came into the being as
a tribute to the Mother.
The support and assistance that forth came and their portion of
profit from business created the right atmosphere for DCT to grow, by
undertaking comprehensive programmes for the benefit of the poorest
sections of the rural populace in and around the village Narimetta
(Wargangal District) where DCT has established. Seva Sadan Boys Home
for destitute and orphan children and the Seva Sadan Home for the
Aged.

A Breif on Founders:
Mr. Y Vincent is Bachelor of Arts graduate, with MBA. Having lost father at tender
Age of 4 months, Mr. Vincent had firsthand experience of the trials and tribulations
of growing up and obtaining education. So while he was able to stand on his own
and earn sufficiently for self, the desire to help similar children of victims of
ill fate, was constantly stirring in his mind. So on completion of education he
did work for Airtel, Tatas etc., (worked last as Credit control Manager in Tata
Tele-Services in the year 2003) but his desire to serve other unfortunates made
him to resign and start his own small business enterprise, and put in most of his
earnings into Divine Charitable Trust.
Mrs. K Aruna is a MA, B Ed and continues to work as Teacher with Government Primary
School, Boinpally, Secunderabad.
They have offered their 9 Acre ancestral land at Narmetta to the Trust, to start
the Seva Sadan Activity, and contribute both physically and monetarily to run the
organisation, while accepting donations from few like minded patrons.
