The Kayal First Trust is a public, non-profit, charitable trust founded in Kayalpatnam on May 16, 2006. It runs Kayalpatnam.com.

The primary objective of The Kayal First Trust is to work in the areas of information service, education and positive hobbies.

Kayal on the Web - founded in December 1998 - became part of The Kayal First Trust in 2006. The Website - which now receives over 2 million pageviews per year - completed 10 years in 2008.

The Kayal First Trust also launched a unique website - www.topperstalk.com in 2006. This website carries detailed interviews with toppers in the HSC public examination (Standard 12) at the state level.

In order to motivate students of Kayalpatnam-based schools to aim higher, the The Kayal First Trust conceived the Meet the State Topper event in 2006.

Held soon after the public examination results are declared, this event provides an opportunity for Kayalpatnam students to meet in person the students who have emerged First at Tamil Nadu State Level in the Standard 12 public examinations. Iqra Educational Society - based in Kayalpatnam - co-sponsors this event.

The Kayal First Trust has instituted several awards to recognise educational achievement in Kayalpatnam. This includes Best School Award for Kayalpatnam-based schools, individual honours to various students and schools based on several criteria.

In order to encourage the uptake of astronomy as a positive hobby, The Kayal First Trust founded Kayalpatnam Astronomy Society. This Society conducts various programs - especially during Eclipses. A modest telescope for public use has been acquired. Kayalpatnam Astronomy Society also has been bringing out an Annual Almanac for Kayalpatnam since 2008.
