Help preserve Kodava heritage for generations
KodavaClan documents the history, culture, traditions and genealogy of the Kodava community — the world's largest digital repository of Kodava heritage.
Dear Patrons
A note from Team KodavaClanKodavaClan was launched in July 2017 with the vision of preserving and documenting the rich heritage, history, culture, traditions, and genealogy of the Kodava community.
Today, KodavaClan is proud to host the world's largest digital repository of Kodava heritage, with over 6,000 heritage pages and a family tree connecting more than 22,000 Kodavas. This has been made possible through the support of our patrons, contributors, and well-wishers across the world.
While these achievements are significant, they represent only a fraction of the vast history, traditions, and knowledge that remain to be documented and preserved.
Driven by a dedicated team since 2012, KodavaClan continues to research, verify, and preserve our community's legacy for future generations. We invite you to become a part of this ongoing mission.
Every contribution — whether in the form of knowledge, time, or financial support — helps us expand the world's largest repository of Kodava heritage and preserve our history for generations to come.
Together, let us preserve our heritage, strengthen our identity, and leave a lasting legacy for future generations.
– Team KodavaClan
