Financial assistance is given to patients from poor families affected by serious illnesses like cancer, heart problem, kidney disease, etc. The Muthoot M George Foundation has working arrangements in this respect with leading hospitals in various cities. The only criteria for selection for assistance are their financial position. Thousands of families have been benefitted through this initiative.

Breakfast, lunch, evening tea, and snacks as well as dinner was provided during these days.

Assistance is given to girls belonging to poor families, especially girls of widows, for their marriage. Many of these families find it very difficult to make the necessary arrangements without external assistance. Muthoot M. George Foundation has helped thousands of families in their hour of need.
In order to combat Exam Phobia which often results in the gap between ability and performance of students, Muthoot M George Foundation organized an examination awareness-building class for the students in association with Fr. John Puthuva, Bharathmatha College, Thrikkakkara. This counselling not only abated the students' anxiety about exams but also, made them aware of the most effective ways to approach the exams and answer the questions for obtaining maximum scores.
