ABOUT KAM
Our association is dedicated to uniting the vibrant Malayali community in Manawatū, New Zealand, with a primary goal of fostering connections, friendship, and mutual understanding. Our mission is to enhance the well-being of not only the Malayali community but also contribute to the broader New Zealand society.
At the heart of our efforts are meticulously organized cultural, social, educational, and sporting activities that bring people together. Through these events, the Kerala Association of Manawatu strives to enrich society by promoting a high level of social interaction and raising awareness within the community.
For our younger generation, we take pride in passing on our rich cultural heritage, traditions, and the often underappreciated legacy and values as they integrate into the vibrant tapestry of New Zealand culture. We cherish and celebrate the social and religious festivals that are deeply rooted in our homeland, nurturing a strong bond with Kerala.
Our mission transcends borders as we aim to bridge people, cultures, and values in this Rainbow Nation of New Zealand, where a harmonious and well-integrated multi-ethnic community thrives. Together, we embrace diversity and build a sense of belonging, creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for all.
Join us in this journey of cultural enrichment, community building, and harmonious coexistence. Together, we can celebrate our shared heritage while contributing to the beautiful mosaic that is New Zealand society. Welcome to the Kerala Association of Manawatu, where tradition meets the future!
