MKM Educational Trust

MKM Educational Trust ("Trust") is a non-profit and non-governmental Indian-based trust foundation established and founded by Mr MKM Aboobakar.

History
On 25 October 1993, the trust was originally registered in Tranquebar (now known as Tharangambadi), in Tamil Nadu, India with the Society Ordnance Department of Tamil Nadu Government, India under the name of "Memuka Foundation" as a charitable trust. "Memuka" is short for "Menamuna Kassim”.

Then on 3 November 1998 the name was further expanded to its origin and had been changed and registered with the same Registration Department as "Menamuna Kassim Memorial Trust". This is popularly known as "MKM Trust".

Since MKM Trust’s objective was to provide the best English-medium education to the educationally backward communities who are poor, the name was changed to suit its purpose as "MKM Educational Trust" on 22 August 2011.

Objectives
The trust was initially set up to provide quality English-medium education to poor young Muslim girls from educationally backward community and also to prevent them from marrying at their early tender age. But now the trust focuses on rural areas, especially the poor, irrespective of their religious or social background, so that they can compete at a national and international level.
