Thomas Thippabathini
Creating lasting change Rev. Fr. Thomas Thippabathini’s inspiring journey from growing up in as a semi-orphan to founding Anugraha Charitable Trust reflects his deep commitment to uplifting the lives of the most vulnerable. Determined to bring hope and opportunity to the underprivileged, Fr. Thomas established Anugraha Charitable Trust in 2007 to support rural children in India.
Global Impact In 2016, he expanded his mission by establishing Anugraha Act, Inc., a California-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit that enables American donors to support education and development for orphans, semi-orphans, and the poorest children. This organization connects American donors with Anugraha’s efforts in India, supporting education, vocational training for women, aid for the elderly, and more.
