Many families who move to a new country want the same rituals they grew up with, performed properly, without searching for a pandit every single time. That's what this Foundation exists to make simple.
We give Melbourne devotees a trusted, consistent way to arrange Satyanarayan Katha, Sunderkand Path, Hanuman Chalisa and other ceremonies at home — conducted properly, in a language every generation of the family can follow.
Alongside religious services, the Foundation runs arts and cultural programs that bring the wider Melbourne community together throughout the year — festivals, community evenings and cultural celebrations open to all.
No one is turned away from a ceremony for financial reasons. We're a registered not-for-profit, and every ceremony runs on a voluntary contribution rather than a fixed fee.
