Receiving such appreciation from an organization driven by compassion and humanity is deeply meaningful to me. Working alongside an inspiring leadership team and dedicated members has always been a privilege\, and this recognition motivates me even more to continue serving society with sincerity and passion. \nThe event\, “Thangum Thanalum” (Support and Shade)\, held at Hotel East Avenue\, Kozhikode\, was a beautiful reflection of the World Malayalee Council Malabar Province’s commitment to compassion and care for humanity. The initiative focused on supporting rehabilitation centers for physically and mentally challenged individuals in Calicut\, bringing hope\, dignity\, and encouragement to many lives. \nIt was a deeply emotional and fulfilling experience to personally contribute to this noble cause through the distribution of essential equipment such as wheelchairs and sewing machines. More than material support\, the program aimed to empower individuals\, promote independence\, and remind them that they are valued and supported by the community around them. \nI strongly believe that true leadership is not measured by status or success\, but by the ability to create meaningful change in the lives of others. This initiative was not simply about giving donations—it was about sharing compassion\, standing together\, and touching lives with kindness and humanity. \n“Wealth is not what you accumulate\, but what you share to heal the world.” \nMy heartfelt gratitude once again to WMC Malabar Province for this touching tribute and for allowing me to be part of such a meaningful mission of service and hope. \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\nhttps://kannatts.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/WMC-Malabar-Province-Charity-Initiative-2026_Video1.mp4\n\n\nhttps://kannatts.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/WMC-Malabar-Province-Charity-Initiative-2026_Cideo2.mp4 URL:https://kannatts.com/event/a-heartfelt-tribute-to-compassion-and-service-wmc-malabar-province-charity-initiative-2026/ CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://kannatts.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/WMC-Malabar-Province-Charity-Initiative-2026_05-e1779902523472.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20260531T080000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20260531T170000 DTSTAMP:20260603T150634Z CREATED:20260603T150339Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260603T150634Z UID:3000-1780214400-1780246800@kannatts.com SUMMARY:Honoured with the Certificate of Honour at the "Ek Bharat – Shresht Bharat" National Integration Conclave during Bharat Ekta Divas 2026 and Sardar Patel's 150th Birth Anniversary Celebrations DESCRIPTION:I am deeply humbled and honored to have received a Certificate of Honour at the “Ek Bharat – Shresht Bharat” National Integration Conclave\, held on May 31\, 2026\, at the Exhibition Grounds\, Nampally\, Hyderabad\, as part of the Bharat Ekta Divas 2026 celebrations. \nThe event\, organized in association with Bharat Bharati Bhagya Nagar and marked two significant occasions: the celebration of Bharat Ekta Divas (National Unity Day)\, promoting national harmony and integration\, and the commemoration of the 150th Birth Anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel\, one of the principal architects of a united India. \nReceiving this recognition at a gathering dedicated to unity\, nation-building\, and social service is truly meaningful to me.
