Bal Vihar Hindi School, Atlanta

Bal Vihar was started in 1990 by VHP of America as one of the educational initiatives to teach Hindi and HIndu culture. Since then it has grown tremendously in several ways. What began as a small seven-child event has evolved into a small 140-student institution. We have moved to a wonderful location, been blessed with the addition of several invaluable teachers, and added more structure and organization to Bal Vihar to streamline it. We have held SEVA projects to help the community, celebrated numerous cultural and religious holidays, and visited places of immense importance such as the King Center to celebrate Gandhi Jayanti. We have learned about the different regions of India, held beautiful cultural programs, welcomed inspiring people, and been on television. We have been recognized by several communities and honored by corporations.
