Dear All,

It is a great honor and privilege to be the President of the Kerala Cultural Society of Metropolitan Washington (KCSMW). I would like to thank all of you for the confidence and trust you have placed in me to lead our organization in 2026 and serve the Malayali Community in the Washington DC Metro area.

I would like to congratulate our outgoing team led by Anish Senan and Seena Tijo for completing a very fulfilling year for KCSMW with exciting events and outstanding activities! The past leaders of KCS have strengthened the organization every year with their outstanding vision and dedication, and I am eager to follow in their footsteps.

For the year 2026, we have formed a great team of individuals who are very enthusiastic about serving our community. As we work together as a team towards our common goal of preserving and enriching our rich cultural heritage, I request you to provide your valuable support and suggestions and support in all our endeavors as you did in past years.

As we embark on this new chapter, my vision for KCSMW is to build on our strong foundation while exploring new opportunities to connect and empower our community. This year, we aim to introduce diverse programs, foster inclusivity, and provide platforms for every member to showcase their talents and share their ideas. Let us come together to create an environment where each voice is valued, and every initiative strengthens our community spirit.

The success of all KCS initiatives is made possible by your unwavering support. I kindly request everyone’s continued support and participation in all our events in 2026, as well as ideas or suggestions you may have to help KCS better serve our community.

May this new year bring us all good health, happiness, and success. Let us work hand in hand to make 2026 another remarkable year for KCSMW. Wishing you and your families a very Happy New Year!
