UAE, March 13, 2024

Sri Kurumba Educational and Charitable Trust, that was established in 1994 by Mr PNC Menon
and Mrs Sobha Menon to run various philanthropic projects (including the CSR programs of
SOBHA Ltd) has taken a significant stride towards providing secure and safe homes to the rural
poor, totally free of charge. This initiative of Sobha Community Home Project – “Griha Sobha
2024”, provides free housing benefit to 220 women-led underprivileged families in Palakkad
district, aiming to address the pressing issue of inadequate housing experienced by
underprivileged families in India.

In the recent inauguration event, the Sri Kurumba Educational and Charitable Trust celebrated
Griha Sobha 2024, the keys handover for its first set of 100 homes at no cost to the beneficiaries
was concluded, and foundation stone laying was done for another 120 homes of the promised
1000 homes to women from resource-limited families. Of these 120 homes where foundation
stone laying was done, 13 landless families have been provided with 5 cents of land each, upon
which their homes will be constructed.

The event, held on March 9th, was graced by esteemed dignitaries, including Mrs Sobha Menon,
Trustee, Sri Kurumba Educational and Charitable Trust and Mr. Ravi Menon, Chairman of
Sobha Limited. The event also saw the presence of State Ministers, MLAs, MPs, leaders cutting
across political parties, and various eminent dignitaries. The ceremony served as a platform to
highlight Sobha CSR’s commitment to holistic social development, with the launch of the Sobha
CSR website, showcasing the organization’s numerous projects and initiatives.

Mr. PNC Menon, Founder, SOBHA Group, a visionary and the driving force behind Sri
Kurumba Educational and Charitable Trust, expressed, “A home is more than just a shelter;
it’s a foundation for a better life. At Sri Kurumba Educational and Charitable Trust, we are
committed to transforming lives through holistic social development, starting with the provision
of housing security. We believe that by addressing the basic needs of individuals, we can create a
ripple effect that positively impacts families, communities, and society at large.”

Through its Trust initiatives, Sobha Limited continues to make a meaningful and sustainable
impact on the lives of the economically weaker sections, demonstrating its unwavering
dedication to giving back to society.
