Discover the Benefits of Studying Scriptures, Meditation, Group Interactions, and More!

At KSHT Yuva Datta Meetings, the youth has interactive discussions ( topics/qualities derived from Hinduism based on various sacred scriptures ) and disusses how to implement these aspects on a daily basis. They have interactive fun learning projects reinforcing concepts and also includes projects which enhance skills such as team work and leadership. These lead to various volunteering activities within the temple and the community.

Past charities that the youth has worked with include, Meals on Wheels, Stonefield Assited Living Center, Samaritan Inn, Stewpot, North Texas Food Bank, Annual Medical Camp held at KSHT, Blood Drive, as well as helping Bhutanese Refugess.

Within the temple community, the youth has assisted in many events such as, serving lunch to temple visitors, packing lunch boxes to be sold in canteen, cleaning the temple, marketing temple events, Diwali Mela, and KSHT Annual Mela to name a few.
