Mr. Tomy Mathew, a 24-year-old young man had the inspiration to serve the downtrodden, hence he brought a mentally challenged person to his house and started looking after him. This happened during the year 1994. In 1995 he adopted one more person, and the process continued till the number of persons reached four. It was not possible to accommodate any more persons at home. At this time he put up the idea of constructing a shelter for them in his family property. With the support of his family members, he started Divyarakshalayam on the 15th of June 1996.
