GES India, A Kimball Electronics Company, Makes a Difference for Students at Remote School
June 19, 2023 | Kimball ElectronicsEstimated reading time: 1 minute

The GES India team continues to make a meaningful impact in the community, as we reached out to KEMHS School, located in a remote area of Aluva Kerala.
The school is a Malayalam medium co-educational institute consisting of 480 students from grades 5 through 10. With open hearts and hands, we extended our support by providing essential school and educational items to the students, like uniforms, notebooks, and pens. The company was represented onsite at the school by Abdul Saleem, Mridul NM and Thabsheer KP.
This gesture aims to empower and enrich the lives of the students, fostering a conducive learning environment for their educational journey. GES India remains committed to making a positive difference in the lives of those they serve. Last but not the least, our team saw bright smiling faces when they distributed chocolates to the kids.
Abdul's family also joined him for this event. Says Abdul, "It was well organized by the school authorities. Our CSR activity was a part of their Earth Day and School Inauguration Ceremony. It was worth every second spent with children of the school. I am looking forward to being a part more events where we can truly make a difference to the society."
