Established on 23rd October 1951, the Southern India Education Trust (S.I.E.T.) was founded by the Hon’ble Mr. Justice Basheer Ahmed Sayeed, M.A., B.L., in collaboration with seven eminent Muslims of Madras. The Trust was created with a focused vision to advance women’s education and empower the underprivileged sections of society.

Stories of Change

Thanks to SIET’s scholarship and guidance, I was able to join college and pursue my dream of becoming a nurse. I’m now in my final year and excited to serve my community.

Earlier, my children couldn’t go to school because we couldn’t afford books or fees. SIET helped us with free education support and now my son and daughter are both studying well.
