About Kerala Center
With the enormous growth of the community in the U.S. and New York in Particular, the Kerala Community had long felt the need for a Community Center. Such a Center could serve to promote the civic and other social service activities among the Indian American community and also to serve as a focal point to coordinate the activities and services to the Kerala Community.

Under the leadership of Mr. E. M. Stephen, the founder President and the present President, the Indian American Kerala Cultural and Civic Center ( IAKC & CC) - The Kerala Center was formed as a non profit organization in 1990. With three years of fund raising campaign The Kerala Center bought a former YMCA building as its center. It was inaugurated in 1993 by Padmashri Yesudas and is the only Civic and Community Center in U.S. for Indian American Malayalees.
