You must inquire with the responsible authority regarding the mandatory mention of the activity grant and the region. If they do not mandate it, then what you have done is correct. However, if they stipulate their mention, then the certificate must be amended to include them. You are not permitted to take what you do not deserve due to the non-fulfillment of conditions, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Muslims are bound by their conditions."
