About Dr. Abdul Shakeel Charitable Trust

Based in Derlakatte, Mangalore, the Dr. Abdul Shakeel Charitable Trust has been working for the welfare of society for over a decade. What began as a personal commitment to giving back has grown into a wide-reaching humanitarian organisation touching thousands of lives across Dakshina Kannada, Karnataka, and beyond.

From sponsoring students and building homes to organising community events and responding to emergencies, the Trust operates on a simple belief — that compassion, when put into action, can transform lives. A significant portion of Dr. Shakeel's business earnings is channelled directly into these initiatives, ensuring that success is shared with those who need it most.

The Trust continues to expand its reach, deepen its impact, and inspire others to embrace the values of generosity, service, and community development.
