In the age of fleeting tweets and instant gratification, Kishore Joseph stands as a testament to the enduring power of passion and purpose. He's not a celebrity driven by hashtags, but a man guided by an unwavering desire to make the world a brighter place, one smile at a time.

KJ, as he's fondly called, wears many hats: media publisher, event manager, social entrepreneur, and above all, a relentless servant of the less fortunate. His journey, however, started far from the glitz and glamour he now commands. In the 90s, he was a young dreamer navigating the turbulent waters of the tabloid business, fueled by nothing more than a can-do attitude and a heart brimming with ambition.

He learned fast, discovering a world beyond himself that yearned not just for sensational headlines, but for genuine connection and service. This revelation sparked a fire within him, propelling him to launch "This Week Group," a chain of neighborhood tabloids that resonated with the everyday lives of Bangaloreans.

But KJ's ambitions weren't confined to newsprint. He founded Breathe Entertainment, an event management company dedicated to staging spectacular events, many of which broke world records. This success gave him a platform, an undeniable leverage in society, yet something else beckoned him.

Destiny, as he likes to say, had other plans. KJ shifted gears, turning his sights towards those often overlooked – the homeless, the forgotten, the residents of orphanages and old age homes. He became a man of the people, collaborating with NGOs, organizing community events, and lending his voice to the voiceless.

Today, his list of contributions reads like a testament to his tireless devotion. He was  the founder-secretary of Just Bell Foundation, a trustee of Omashram Trust Old Age Care, and the managing trustee of Joseph Welfare Trust. He wears these hats with humility, always ensuring that the spotlight remains on those he serves.

"I believe my destiny is to work for the welfare of the common people," he says, a quiet conviction emanating from his words. And for him, this isn't just a job; it's a way of life. That sums up my work as Event Manager & PR Consultant, one of the many domains which forms the core of my expertise and experience. He is presently the Director of Breathe Entertainment, Founder & Editor of Thisweekindi.news , Founder Colorothon, and Multiple world Record holder.

To many, managing his own life amidst the demands of daily responsibilities, let alone caring for strangers, would seem an impossible feat. But KJ approaches it with unwavering faith and a philosophy that transcends the mundane. "What you do for your self will perish when you die," he says, "but what you do for others will live and remain as your legacy."

He embodies the principle of "Vasudaiva Kutumbakam" – the world as one family. Born in Kolar Gold Field, a true Bangalorean at heart, he serves people across the country and beyond, earning national and international acclaim. His gratitude lies not in trophies or awards, but in the quiet satisfaction of bringing a smile to someone's face.

Kishore Joseph isn't just a man of achievements; he's a testament to the human spirit's boundless potential. He proves that you don't need deep pockets to do good, only a big heart and a relentless drive to make a difference. In a world often consumed by self-interest, he stands as a beacon of hope, a reminder that the greatest joy lies in making someone else's life a little better.

He's a storyteller, not just on paper but in the lives he touches. He writes his legacy not in words but in smiles, in tears of gratitude, in the hope he ignites in the hearts of the forgotten. Kishore Joseph is a walking reminder that ordinary people can achieve extraordinary things, and that the truest measure of success isn't what you have, but the lives you impact.
