Medical Welfare Fund

The community’s safety net in times of medical hardship, ensuring KSB members can access healthcare assistance when they need it.

About this sub-committee

The Medical Welfare Fund provides financial and medical support to KSB members by ensuring access to healthcare assistance for those in need. Launched in 2001, it is one of KSB’s earliest welfare initiatives and continues to serve as the community’s safety net in times of medical hardship.

Since 2006, the Fund has organised free medical health check-up camps open to all Kodavas, bringing preventive care directly to the community. With medical professionals serving as advisors on the committee, the Fund combines clinical expertise with community reach.
