At Tikitoro, our mission has always been simple: to care for kids & teens in every way we can. Our products are created for all kids and teens - safe, clean,
endocrine-disruptor-free essentials that support their everyday wellbeing.
From the very beginning, we also hoped to extend this commitment beyond personal care.We dreamed of finding meaningful ways to support children who need a little extra help - especially those with special needs -by contributing to programmes that nurture confidence, creativity, and independence.
Is the first step in making that dream real. It allows us to stand beside organisations that uplift extraordinary children, creating opportunities for learning, growth, and dignity. And your support is what makes this possible.
Our partnership with Sri Arunodayam Charitable Trust and their vocational training initiative, Prayatna, is one such choice that reflects our commitment to meaningful impact and respectful collaboration - shaped by our dedication to nurturing children’s wellbeing, potential, and sense of self-worth. This is more than a project. It’s a connection between young creators, conscious customers, and a shared belief in giving everyone the chance to grow.
For over two decades, Sri Arunodayam Charitable Trust in Chennai has provided abandoned and rescued children with intellectual disabilities a safe, home-like environment with therapy, education, and holistic care a place where dignity and belonging come first.
Prayatna is Sri Arunodayam’s vocational training unit for children above 18 with special needs. Here, individuals with intellectual disabilities learn skills that help them participate meaningfully in society and work toward a dignified livelihood. From tailoring and handcrafting to textile and accessory making, every product reflects focus, skill, pride, and the desire to contribute with purpose. Prayatna offers not just training, but the confidence that their work matters and is truly valued.
Through Tikitoro Cares, we celebrate these children with intellectual disabilities whose strength, creativity, and determination shine through every hand-crafted piece they make.
These creations will find their way into select Tikitoro orders, carrying quiet reminders of the remarkable possibilities that unfold when children, even the ones with special needs, are given space to learn, grow in confidence, and believe in their own potential.
At Tikitoro, everything we do begins with empowering children - and supporting these children is an extension of that commitment, honouring their journeys and amplifying their voices. Each piece reflects not just what is made, but the courage, pride, and hope of those who crafted it a reminder that every child deserves the chance to shine.
