Overview

Mission

Hindu Community Relations Council engages in charity and community education. In 2024, we brought together members of the Hindu community to support a eco bag drive with Sewa International. Through our outreach, there is broader awareness of Hindu community service, increased relationships between organizations, more interfaith dialogue, and awareness of Hindu concerns, such as a discrimination and anti-Hindu statements. We collaborated with the Jewish community in a virtual panel to share similar faith views, volunteering in Mitzvah Day and continue educating the public on the Genocide of Kashmiri Hindus, as well as encourage registering to vote. We also educated the Jewish community on Hindu Customs during Hannukah. In 2025, we aspire to continue our efforts to produce material and content on Hindu issues in America, as well as encouraging the community to support our partner Hindu community service and charity organizations.

What it reported doing in 2024

Hindu Community leaders joined in two educational events to share similar aspects of Hindu faith and traditions with that Jewish faith and traditions. The events covered such festivals as Hannukah and Diwali.
