Vimalardhram, the community extension service of the Association, aims to lend a hand to the nearby locality. Co-ordinator, Dr Sr Marriette A Therattil along with the executive members visited the Autism Centre, Chembukkavu on December22^nd 2018. The Centre holds two sessions for the autistic kids: Morning session trains around 25 kids and another 20 in the afternoon. Parents take turns to assist there voluntarily. The kids have physical training sessions too. Ritorno handed over gym equipments worth Rs 20,000/- to the centre. It was a fulfilling day having spent a few hours with the children and shared sweets with them.

The members visited Mahila Mandhir on December15^th 2018 and interacted with them. There were around 100 inmates there. They had a self help unit where they produce floor mats out of recycled waste materials. We distributed tea & snacks and bought floor mats from there.

As part of Vimalardhram, Ritorno launched Pagalveedu for the aged women in the community in April 2018 at Padukkad. Alumnae executive members Ms Latha Louis and Ms Radhika Madhavan visit the inmates once in a week. Members along with the students celebrated Onam with them.

Ritorno has made substantial contribution to the educational infrastructure and resources like Digital Display Board and Digital Library worth Rs 1,10,000/-.
