OUR STORY

​​

Vibgyor Charitable Trust was founded on 9th April 2009 through the vision and initiative of Mr. Francis (Franky) Veigas. What began with a small group of passionate and compassionate individuals soon evolved into a collective driven by a shared purpose—to extend a helping hand to those in need of care, support, and hope. The name VIBGYOR was thoughtfully chosen to reflect the Trust’s diverse and multifaceted objectives, perfectly embodied by our byline, “Colors of Society.” Just as the colors of the spectrum come together to create something beautiful, we believe that every individual, community, and act of kindness contributes to building a more compassionate and inclusive society. Over the years, VIBGYOR has remained committed to serving communities and supporting those in need.

Through various charitable initiatives, community outreach programs, activities, and fundraising events, we have worked tirelessly to create meaningful and lasting change in the lives of others. Our journey has not been without its challenges. Along the way, we have sadly lost several cherished members whose love, dedication, and contributions helped shape the foundation of our organization. While their absence is deeply felt, their spirit continues to inspire everything we do. Today, VIBGYOR Charitable Trust continues to move forward with the same passion and purpose with which it began. Our mission remains unwavering—to spread hope, inspire compassion, and make a positive difference in society. Because while times may change and people may come and go, our commitment to helping those in need will never fade.
