Mrs. Esther Dass is the Founder President of the Indian Women And Child Welfare Trust. Indian Women And Child Welfare Trust was established in 1996 but got registered in 2000. The story of change is seen at two levels – in the community and at the organization itself that has been moving forward leaps and bounds. Indian Women And Child Welfare Trust is a registered organization under the Indian Trust Act in India. It is also registered with the Home Ministry of the Government of India to receive foreign funds under the appropriate FCR Act and with the Income Tax department of the Government of India and is allotted a Permanent Account Number (PAN) and is exempted from paying tax on the funds received by them. It has never been blacklisted, changed its name or moved its head office but has expanded to different state offices. Its priorities and objectives have remained the same.
