One of the country’s greatest societal barriers is the inability to provide marriages due to the rate of poverty.

Many parents fall into the debt-trap as they are forced to take on loans to pay for wedding dowrys that they cannot afford to repay.

The Trust has introduced a social wedding structure, conducting over 600 weddings to date, saving families from financial ruin, in order to help them begin their married life, along with marriage counselling both before and after marriage.

Community Care

Sobha is committed to the wider community, offering a variety of community feeding programs, and social activities at the dedicated Community Centre.

The Centre has also been utilised to act as a medical facility and base for flood victims while their homes were being constructed.

Green Initiatives

As part of its diverse CSR initiatives, Sobha’s green philosophy has been widely adopted across all of its efforts. Across several campuses, over 2,220 tree varieties have been planted, and all facility construction produce a minimal building footprint to maintain the natural foliage and environmental surroundings. Rainwater is conserved and utilised to cultivate the vegetable and herb gardens and paddy fields. A solar energy plant minimises electrical use, and drainage and waste management measures are in place for sanitation. 2022, an impressive two tons of paddy and 4.6 tons of organic fruits and vegetables were produced.

With many more projects underway, the Sri Kurumba Educational and Charitable Trust has gained international recognition for its wide-reaching impact on the local economy and social development in and around Kerala, sparking local changes within the standard school systems, healthcare facilities, and environmental awareness. As the Trust continues to expand and build upon their legacy, there are many new programs planned in the next few years, including the Sobha Digital Academy, a Social Development Centre, as well as ongoing upgrades to their existing facilities.
