Reaching out
Muthoot Pappachan Group has been partnering with Rajagiri Outreach, an NGO based in Cochin. The initiative has changed several lives since 2006. Educational sponsorship and Higher Education scholarship have been focussed activities along with medical insurance cover for families to ensure a sustainable model of growth and development.
The Muthoot Pappachan Group sponsors 450 needy students every year for their schooling. Children hailing from agriculture and fishing dependent families in Konni and Panathura, Kerala are provided education kits, remedial tuitions, vacation camps, nutrition, medical insurance and counselling.
40 academically brilliant students are chosen every year from across the state of Kerala to pursue higher studies and make careers in the field of nursing, engineering and business administration. Through the initiative 750 families in Pathanamthitta district in Kerala are covered with medical insurance every year.
Jenny Joseph is just one such success story of the Muthoot Pappachan Group – Rajagiri Outreach partnership.
Hailing from Varapuzha in Ernakulam Dist. Jenny Joseph is a hard working, focused and studious girl. Jenny has always been a good student and dreamt of a B.Tech degree but the financial burden on her family was too heavy to bear. Her family was settled in the Gulf till her father was diagnosed with a rare medical condition and the family had to return to India. With the lone breadwinner of the family laid up, the education of three daughters faced constraints.
The Muthoot Pappachan Group in alliance with CASP, a part of Rajagiri Outreach extended aid by funding a part of the tuition fees. Jenny has now completed her B tech course from Viswajyoti College in Muvattupuzha, with flying colours. She is now employed at Infosys, Bangalore with a healthy remuneration. She begins her training at Infosys, Mysore on September 12th 2011. We wish her good luck for a bright and successful future.

When it mattered the most...
Two of Muthoot Fincorp's Auto Loan customers Mr. Balakrishnan M from the Payyannur Branch and Mr.Santhosh T from the Chettikulangara Branch who had availed two wheeler loans, unfortunately met with fatal accidents. Though the loss to their respective families is unfathomable, the Apollo Munich - Personal Accident Insurance of Rs.1 Lakh, which Muthoot Fincorp provides free of cost to all our Two Wheeler Loan customers became a small consolation to their families.
After closing our loan account, a cheque for Rs.62157/- was handed over to the nominee - Mrs.Sumathi Balakrishnan(wife of Mr Balakrishnan) in the presence of Mr.Arunkumar,
Sr. Regional Manager-Auto Loan.A cheque for Rs.1,00,000/- to the nominee, Mrs.Bindhu Santhosh (wife of Mr Santosh) in the presence of Mrs.Aswathy Gopinath (Asst Manager, Operations).
Though we cannot compensate for the loss to their families we are happy to be a small source of comfort in their hour of need.
Thanks to the Apollo Munich team for providing efficient support for settling claims.
Our prayers with the families.

Attakkalari performances attract excellent reviews in Cochin and Trichur, special performance scheduled in Trivandrum.
Brought for the first time ever to Kerala by the Muthoot Pappachan Foundation, the Attakkalari Centre for Movement Arts is India’s premiere organization working in the field of contemporary movement arts. Programmes include Education and Outreach, Diploma in Movement Arts and Mixed Media, Research and Documentation, the Attakkalari India Biennial and the Repertory Company. Founded in 1992, Attakkalari is led by its Artistic Director, Jayachandran Palazhy, and is currently based in Bangalore.
During the past few years the Attakkalari Repertory has performed at some of the most prestigious dance festivals in Europe, Japan, China and the UK including the Venice Biennale, Bonn Biennial, Monaco Dance Forum, Munich Contemporary Dance Festival, Juli Dans Festival as well as venues in Lublin, Bologna, Düsseldorf, Frankfurt, Yokohoma and London. It is also a matter of great pride that in October 2008 Attakkalari was invited by the Indian Council for Cultural Relations to perform at the prestigious Rastrapathi Bhavan, New Delhi, to mark a diplomatic exchange between India, Brazil and South Africa (IBSA summit).
Drawing sustenance from India’s immense wealth of performance traditions, Attakkalari’s movement language is fresh, energetic, sinuous and earthy. It reflects the vibrancy and diversity of contemporary India. All dancers are trained in several Indian and international performance and physical traditions including Bharathanatyam, Kalarippayattu, Ballet, different Contemporary Dance techniques, Contact Improvisation, Yoga and Capoeira. The influence of these physical traditions can be seen in Attakkalari’s unique dance repertoire.
Performances sponsored by the Muthoot Pappachan Foundation have received excellent response from the public and media in Cochin and Trichur. The performance in Trivandrum at the Tagore Theatre on 2nd November, also sponsored by the Foundation, will include an exciting and dazzling cross section of Attakkalari’s repertoire from shorter dance pieces to movement excerpts from full length multi-media dance productions. Through this performance audiences in Kerala will gain a truly fantastic and entirely unique viewing experience.

Disability did not hold Neeraj back: the story of a badminton star.
Neeraj George Baby was introduced to the sport of badminton by none other than his passion for the sport. Driven by it, he began to play badminton
even though he is permanently disabled. Neeraj had an above knee amputation of his left limb due to Osteogenic Sarcoma (Bone Cancer) in 1996 when
he was 9 years old.
He began playing badminton on single crutches with able bodied people and picked up the techniques with amazing alacrity. Initially he represented his
College of study, UC College in Alwaye, Kerala, in intercollegiate matches. Later when he came into contact with the All India Badminton Association for
the Disabled, a world of glorious opportunities threw open their doors.
As a debutant , it was Neeraj’s privilege to represent Kerala in the National level tournament held at NALCO Nagar, Orissa. What followed was a deluge
of opportunities.
Neeraj George Baby secured Silver in Doubles at the 2007 All India Super Six Badminton Tournament for the Physically Challenged and the Sixth National
Championship in the same year. At the 2008 Asian Paralympic Cup, Neeraj bagged Gold in Doubles and Silver in Singles.
In the academic front, Neeraj is no less accomplished. He holds a Master of Science degree in Biotechnology from the University of Abertay, UK.
Neeraj is participating in the Israel Open 2010 Tournament to be held in Tel Aviv from 24th to
29th November. The Muthoot Pappachan Group wishes him
all the very best.
