Founded in 2018 in the San Francisco Bay Area, Hindu Community Institute (HCI) is the first-of-its-kind service-learning institution designed for the global Hindu diaspora.

HCI is a California non-profit 501(c)(3)  founded by professionals driven by a need to  develop much-needed community service solutions.

HCI provides a strong platform for training and universal community service founded on Hindu tradition and wisdom.

The founding group recognized that the highly accomplished and affluent global Hindu diaspora community also needs institutions to train Hindu Counselors and Hindu Chaplains, as well as to pass on to the future generations the spirit of giving back to the community. The founding principle for HCI is one of “by the community, for the community.
