-Seeing the challenges to fight against HIV, Dr Suniti Solomon founded YRG Care with limited staff and resources. The organisation started from three people and provided basic testing facilities. Dr Suniti Solomon started spreading awareness with school children, community gatherings and other civic groups. She would rent a room in a lodge if space was required. Later, her friends started to give her space for care in their houses. YRG Care then rented a floor in Raman Street in Chennai. Dr Suniti was later able to use a disused building in Voluntary Health Services (VHS) hospital campus.
