Press release from Sewa Diwali:

After successful #SewaDiwali in 2020, we are excited to announce and share #SewaDiwali 2021, a food donation drive this year from Oct 5 - Nov 21, 2021.

#SewaDiwali is an initiative by Dharmic organizations like Yoga, Spiritual, Hindu/Bouddha/Jain centers, Gurudwaras, Linguistic and Indian socio-cultural organizations who believe in the Sewa Dharma - “Service to Humanity is Service to Divinity” to give back to society where we live in during the festival of Diwali which is celebrated worldwide on November 4, 2021.

#SewaDiwali is a collective initiative to come together and represent the collective strength and synergy of the Dharma Community living in the USA and contribute towards their local communities. This is an opportunity for all of us to join the national movement to stop hunger. It helps enhance the Sewa Bhaav (spirit of selfless service) among all the members including kids and families. Activities like this can also help expand the footprint of the community organizations and reach out to new members not connected so far.

This initiative has been expanding nationally over the past few years. In 2020, the campaign ran in 26 states, 180 cities. We collected over 300,000 pounds of food items and donated to 297 food pantries, soup kitchens etc. across 40+ townships throughout the USA.
