About Us

Welcome to Edappalayam-Bahrain

" Strength in Togetherness: By Expats, For Expats "

Edappalayam is a thriving global non-profit expatriate association, founded in 2016 in Abudhabi, where modern marvels meet timeless traditions in the heart of the UAE. Registered under the Societies Act in Kerala state-Republic of INIDA, Edappalayam is dedicated to bringing together the people hailing from Edappal, Vattamkulam, Kaladi, and Thavanur panchayaths of Kerala state in INDIA. The journey of connecting hearts and cultures across borders led Edappalayam to expand its wings to various GCC countries, and in 2017, we proudly planted our roots in the Kingdom of Bahrain.

Culture is at the heart of our association. We take pride in our roots and seek to preserve and promote the rich heritage of Edappalayam. Through cultural events, festivals, and exhibitions, we celebrate our traditions and provide a platform for cultural exchange, fostering unity and appreciation among diverse communities. Life is not solely about work, which is why we organize a range of social and recreational activities for our members and their families. From picnics to sports events, and cultural performances to outings, these activities create opportunities for bonding, relaxation, and creating cherished memories together.

Our Mission

Our mission is to be the ultimate support system for expats, by expats. Edappalayam-Bahrain strives to provide a platform for our members to bond, grow, and thrive through mutual support. We aim to foster personal and professional growth while preserving our cultural identity, all while offering a strong network of assistance for our members on the island.

Our Vision

Edappalayam-Bahrain envisions a united global community where expatriates feel cherished, supported, and connected. As a leading association, we promote cross-cultural understanding, empower members with valuable resources, and strive to make a positive impact on their lives and the world, fostering a vibrant expat experience.
