Landmark Group, the Middle East and India based retail and hospitality conglomerate, is donating AED 3 million including over AED 1.5 million worth of goods channeled through Emirates Red Crescent to help fund the relief and rehabilitation work in the flood-affected state of Kerala, India.

Renuka Jagtiani, Chairwoman and CEO, Landmark Group said: “Our deepest sympathies are with all those who have been affected by the devastating floods in Kerala. We are hopeful that our contribution in India & UAE will make a positive difference to the state and its people. We thank Emirates Red Crescent & our partner NGOs in India who are at the forefront of this critical relief and rehabilitation work.”
We are especially concerned about our employees and their families who are affected in the recent calamity and we will continue to ensure the Group’s full support for them.”
