MILES – Moopen Institute for Local Empowerment MILES, is a project aimed at empowering the citizens of villages in Kerala, particularly in the Malappuram district. The project is run by Dr. Moopen’s Family Foundation, which is a non-profit organization founded by Padmasri Dr. Azad Moopen, a renowned philanthropist and physician, dedicated to promoting social welfare and community development initiatives.
Dr. Moopen’s Family Foundation is committed to empowering marginalized communities and providing them with the resources and support they need to succeed. Through MILES, the foundation is able to make a significant impact on the lives of people in the Malappuram district and beyond. MILES aims to harness the untapped human resources found in Indian villages to create a strong, determined, and aware citizenry. The major projects of MILES include the SHERO PROJECT for Women Empowerment, the STEPS Project for Child Development, the Counselling and Guidance Cell for Community Mental Health, the Employability and Education Empowerment Project, and the Pravasi Mithra Project. These projects are designed to address the specific needs of marginalized communities and provide them with the support and resources they need to thrive. Padmasri Dr. Azad Moopen’s vision and leadership have been instrumental in the success of MILES, and the foundation remains committed to its mission of creating a strong, determined, and aware citizenry in villages across India.
I consider it a proud privilege and pleasure to share with our well-wishers and beneficiaries about the excellent achievements of Moopen Institute for Local Empowerment (MILES) over last 13 years. Started as a giving back initia-tive to our ancestral village Kalpakanchery by the Dr Moopen’s Family Foundation., MILEs has blossomed into a large organization with multifaceted activities. With the core mission for local development through educational and employment empowerment of the marginalized population, we are committed to bring positive changes in their lives, in the region.
Our Mission is to serve the people through empowering and sustain their resources to enhance opportunities for education, employment, income generation, health care and social wellbeing
