Kirtilal Manilal Mehta
Charitable Trust

Every initiative driven towards a social cause takes just one step in the right direction to make it successful, and ours began with establishing the Kirtilal Manilal Mehta Charitable Trust in 1966.

Since its conception, we have engulfed ourselves in aiding the backward socio-economic community. The love held for uplifting society led the Trust into adopting 108 rural villages, where we fostered self-reliance and independence to as many people as we could reach under the ‘Food for Work’ program.

Developing key areas of growth, we ensured education for the youth, set up health camps for 1,500 villages in the surrounding area, and provided vaccinations to children, and immediate assistance to those who needed it. Built on locals’ knowledge of agriculture, animal husbandry, employment, self-employment, social forestry, craft development, and extended food incentives in exchange for work. We empowered these villages and stood by them for 5 years until they could thrive on their own.

The second operation we undertook was building the Lilavati Kirtilal Mehta Medical Trust, in 1978. Advancing in medicine, and helping all those in need, our hospital soon became a sanctuary for the privileged and the underprivileged.

The Lilavati Hospital And Research Centre

The work of charity extended further with the Lilavati Hospital starting its operations in the year 1997. Over the years, Lilavati Hospital & Research Centre has developed unmatched trust with its patients from all communities. It includes state-of-the-art facilities, the best medical expertise, research, education, and charitable endeavours.

Our 'SEWA' initiative was launched to set up police camps, cancer awareness and treatment camps, and senior citizen health camps in Maharashtra and Gujarat.

Impactful Stories

The boy who survived a fatal heart disease

The journey of 100% Free Surgeries began when an 11-year-old boy from a backward rural village walked through the doors of Lilavati Hospital. He was suffering from fatal heart disease. He was sent away by every other hospital despite his critical condition. For the very first time, free treatment was provided by the SEWA department of Lilavati Hospital.

The Bhuj Relief

When the devastating earthquake struck, we acted on impulse. The Bhuj Relief was one of the largest operations we carried out. The destruction that ensued in Bhuj with the 7.6M Earthquake required a barrage of medical support. Without wasting time, we transported the best of our medical staff to Bhuj. Setting up health camps near the earthquake site, and providing immediate medical help to women, children, and men who were pulled from under the debris and dust left behind.

Free food was provided, every staff member carried two gunny bags of grains, and burners were set up so that the people could cook, giving them hope that they could start their life anew. The entire staff stayed in Bhuj until the people got back on their feet.

The staff and medical team who contributed relentlessly were honored with a silver coin. We believe that every act made a huge difference and it is only fair to acknowledge it.

The Girl from the debris
who defeated death

The Bhuj Relief Team of Lilavati Kirtilal Mehta Medical Trust set up medical camps close to the site. Specially trained french dogs were brought from France to sniff out people buried under debris. During this period, a little girl was pulled out miraculously. She was immensely hurt and on the edge of her life. She was rushed to the campsite and her life was saved. This one incident encapsulates what the Bhuj Relief victory was for us. Individual attention to each person, like they were our own.
