Our Purpose
Why We Do This?

Women's Safety
Safe sanitation protects the dignity and safety of women and girls.
Education
Lack of toilets affects school attendance, especially for girls.
Environment
Open defecation pollutes our land and water. Protect our planet.
Community Dignity
Access to safe sanitation is a fundamental human right.
Economic Impact
Better sanitation reduces healthcare costs and boosts productivity.
Our Vision
To make Tenkasi a model sanitation district where every person practices, values, and promotes clean, safe, and dignified sanitation.

The Story
Why We Begin in Tenkasi?
A personal journey that became a movement for health, dignity, and human rights.
Growing Up Without a Toilet
Kali.K (Loo_Kali), one of the directors of Smart Sanitation Foundation, grew up in Tenkasi without a toilet at home. Open defecation was not a choice — it was the only option.
A Vision for Change
That experience shaped his vision to transform sanitation from a basic necessity into a movement for health, dignity, safety, and human rights.
Community Challenges
Many communities still face poor sanitation, open defecation, inadequate hygiene awareness, and poorly maintained public toilets.
A Movement is Born
Toilet Thiruvizha brings together citizens, students, institutions, government, NGOs, volunteers, and CSR partners to create lasting behaviour change.
Tenkasi is where the journey begin. Together, let's make it the district that inspires a Healthier Tamil Nadu.
