A Historic Gesture Towards Humanitarian Service

In a heartwarming announcement made during the recently concluded National Executive Committee (NEC) and National General Council (NGC) meetings, Shri Rajan Samuel, Secretary of AIMA Tamil Nadu, declared his decision to donate two residential plots for the All India Malayalee Association’s (AIMA) Housing Project in Kerala. This generous donation marks a milestone in AIMA’s humanitarian efforts, aiming to support underprivileged families by providing shelter and stability.

Location and Specifications of the Donated Plots

The two plots are situated in a prime and accessible location along the Adoor – Kottarakkara route, specifically at Enath Junction, Kizhakkupuram Road, Thattarupadi in Pathanamthitta District, Kerala.

  • Plot 1: 5 cents
  • Plot 2: 8 cents

This land will be utilized to construct homes for the economically weaker sections of the Malayalee community under AIMA’s housing initiative—an embodiment of the association’s enduring commitment to social upliftment.

Let Shri Rajan Samuel’s example remind us that true leadership lies in service, and the best legacy is one that uplifts others.
