Solace Charities aims to raise awareness and mobilize financial resources for the work carried out by Solace, a voluntary organization headquartered in Thrissur, India. Solace provides financial, medical, moral and social support for families with kids suffering from terminal illness, with the support of benevolent individuals and corporations around the world. Solace extends support to get the best available medical treatment for the suffering child in tandem with the medical fraternity. We provide children with life-saving medicines on a monthly basis and provide for traveling and stay to take the child to hospital for treatment. Solace organizes regular home care visits by a group of dedicated volunteers that makes them feel that they are not alone. For cancer patients, we also provide funds for chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and so on.

Names, privacy, and removal requests More

The names, titles, and compensation shown on this page are reproduced from IRS Form 990 filings, which are public records.

Philanthropy.org does not alter the content of those filings. All information appears exactly as reported by the filing organization for the tax year shown.

We publish only information contained in the public IRS filing — and less than the filing contains. Our profile pages do not display street addresses, telephone numbers, personal email addresses, or other personal contact information, even where the filing includes them.

Many people share the same name. A name shown on this page reflects only what one organization reported in one IRS filing for one tax year. It should not be interpreted as identifying any other individual with the same or a similar name.

If you are no longer affiliated with the organization, your name will generally stop appearing in future IRS filings once the organization no longer reports you. Pages for tax years in which you were reported remain published because those filings remain part of the public record.

Philanthropy.org does not alter or remove IRS filing records. Removing a page from this website would not remove the underlying IRS filing, which remains publicly available from the IRS and other publishers of the same information.

If you believe the IRS filing itself is inaccurate, corrections must be made by the filing organization or the IRS directly.
