Greetings to all from the New Committee of KCABC 2012.

It is with great hope and expectations that I take the helm of our Association.  As President of the Association, I am immensely privileged to work together with a team of enthusiastic, talented and dedicated people.  We plan to collaborate by integrating fresh ideas and suggestions in continuing to bring to community events that we have all enjoyed over the past years.

Our cultural heritage is unique and a sense of community always plays a significant role in our well being.  Our vision is to assist and promote social, cultural and recreational activities for the benefit of the community, thereby enhancing and enriching our cultural values.

One of our biggest priorities is to encourage the involvement of our YOUTH in all of the upcoming event, as they are indeed a powerful force for a sustainable community.  As Franklin D. Roosevelt said, “We cannot always build the future for our youth, but we can build our youth for the future”.
In fact, some of our efforts are already in motion and it gives us great pleasure to introduce some of them.

• Relaunch MyBC (Malayalee youth of BC)
• Initiate a Senior Malayalee’s program
• Initiate a Community Outreach Program
• Initiate a New Immigrant Integration Program

As we look forward to a better and strong future for the community, we wish to recognize and appreciate all the hard work and dedication that has gone into creating a rich history.  We are certain that any success from the past or that can be expected from the future will not be possible without the participation and efforts of volunteers.  We would like to congratulate our community on its success and hope for continued flourishment.

Warmest Regards,

Simon Abraham
