Responsible Citizens iYakkam Trust

Responsible Citizens iYakkam பொறுப்புள்ள குடிமக்கள் இயக்கம்  Trust has become a new milestone we have crossed in this long run as Responsible Citizen beginning around 2008-2009 & gradually understood the needs of the society because of the Tamizh Translation PORUPULLA KUDIMAGAN of the Title could be mis-interpreted wrongly for a drunken man ( as the Alcoholic Hard drinks are famous in the state of Tamilnadu, where we originated ). So we made it sound it plural, thus become Responsible Citizens, PORUPULLA KUDIMAKKAL.

Then when some well wisher suggested a surname of a iYakkam or movement will be taken easily by masses for the mission, we wish to work for. So we became Responsible Citizens iYakkam & continued our journey to create a positive social impact on the society.

In the word iYakkam too ,  particularly made the Letter "i" in smaller caps & made "Y" capital as it was felt that we can make a CARE FOR ALL  society when we keep our "i" smaller & keep the society the Y which stands for YOU larger.

The Journey have further graduated to become a trust as many well wishers wanted the objectives to reach the much larger ground & make it as a movement with lot of field action. So Here we become a Registered Trust to bolster our journey to greater heights.
