==History==
The thriving, little town today pulsates with life that mainly revolves around the elegant MMO campus. Curiously, the credit for the entire institution, that today nurtures around 1,200 little souls, goes to a single family (Vayalil family) presided by the grand patriarch Moi Haji in 1950s. Moi Haji, his brothers and their sons owned 16,000 acres of land between them. They grew teak trees and traded in its valuable timber and elephants caught from the luxuriant forests of Western Ghats.

'''Vayalil''' family's philanthropy was legendary. The vast chunks of land they owned was donated in later decades for churches, temples, mosques, schools and hospitals in and around the tiny village. They thus earned the love and respect of all. This manifests itself in the strong fraternal bonds seen among Hindus and Muslims in the area. The village stood by river Iruvazhinhipuzha which has been immortalized by Malayalam novelist S. K. Pattakkad.

Around 1956, Vayalil Moideen Koya Haji thought of setting up an orphanage to educate and train the poor, orphaned and destitute kids. Thus was born the Mukkam Muslim Orphanage (MMO) which has been adjudged the winner of the National Child Welfare Award by the Government of India twice within a span of three decades i.e., 1982 and 2008.

The spirit of charity still runs in the family which manages the MMO today which over the years has developed into an institution of repute with vast paraphernalia. The family has endeared every one, be they Hindus, Muslims or Christians, in and around Mukkam. All swear by their integrity.
