Sanath Kumar C. D. (05-FEB 1952) is an Indian educationist, author and philosopher. He was raised in a town called Krishnagiri in India. His disability left him unable to receive school education and experience life like any other child. He was home-schooled to some extent then he self-taught himself skills like typewriting, playing guitar, sketching and also graduated secondary school education on his own in his teens. During his childhood, he developed an ambition to start an “inclusive” school for the needy and he also wanted to build a wonderful haven for senior citizens.
He now is the founder of a novel line of educational institutions called Cambridge Schools in Krishnagiri district (3 schools), where children learn stress-free education, focusing on contributing to the society through a purposeful and happy life.
He is running a charitable home for senior citizens where he has designed an exciting life for retired people where they actively involve in teaching, farming, managing small industries among other things.
A Biopic of Mr. Sanath Kumar was directed by film director Vasanth Sai and it won the National Award for the Best Short Documentary of the year 2017.

Organic Farming
Kaveripattinam
Mr. Sanathkumar believes agriculture is the backbone of our country and it should be celebrated as our culture. A part of the school is dedicated to organic farming in neat & organized blocks, where students from the age of 10-18 learn to sow, care and harvest in their slotted hours. They grow vegetables, herbs and certain other local crops, depending on seasons and soil fertility. The harvest is sold in the school and the sale and the income is managed by students, where they learn to invest the money in seeds, or equipment.
Village Adoption
Vattugampatti & Thalavapalli
In rural India, people living in remote villages still find it very difficult to send their children to school for better education as they do not have access to proper roads and conveyance and have no financial support. One such small village is Vattugamapatti where agriculture is their main source of income. As most of them are poor, they are unable to send their children to schools; and they are also unaware of the value of education. We decided to adopt this village, which is 7 km away from our School and are able to provide good education and lifestyle to them.
Social Service
Clean & Green Drive, Relief materials for flood victims, etc
A team of volunteers have been involved in several large scale social services like sending food & other supplies worth lakhs of rupees to flooded regions; and cleaning drive in the local community, planting saplings, providing essentials to people of no income in the COVID lockdown period.
