Our Mission

Bring together the diverse Indian community and their Friends living in the Greater Pittsburgh region to  Educate, Engage and Empower!

  • Make a difference in the region and the larger community that we are a part of.

  • Give back to the community that a lot of us have benefited from in many ways.

  • Volunteer to advance education in our region

  • Leave a legacy in the community that our children and grandchildren will continue to be a part of.

  • Think of it as Community Investment that will bear fruit for a long time to come in many ways! 

Why Education?

  • Education elevates!

  • ​Education empowers!

  • Education is a gift that keeps on giving!

  • Exposure opens minds and possibilities!

  • Education transforms lives, families and communities

  • We know it works!

  • Education cannot be taken away!

Block by block!

Just like a community is changed block by block and brick by brick, lives are changed permanently by investing steadily and consistently year after year! We do not want to just depend on a few that give a lot when they can but on many who can give an impactful little  (or a lot!)  year after year!  Let us work together and (re)build our community intentionally. Please donate annually or subscribe monthly!
