- ABHILASH CHANDRAN @Kottayam

AFTER serving five decades in Abu Dhabi in the UAE, Dr. George Peediyekkal and his wife Dr. Leelamma George, returned to their home in Changanassery, with a desire to continue their lifelong commitment to charity work. However, upon their arrival, they were deeply moved by the sufferings of the homeless in their homeland.

In an act of compassion, the doctor couple have extended a helping hand to those in need. Over the course of three years, Dr. George and Dr. Leelamma have built 34 houses for the homeless using their hard-earned savings of around ₹2 crore, which they accumulated over nearly 50 years of working in the UAE. At the age of 80, Dr. George is steadfast in his dedication to charity activities.
