The Swaminarayan School’s Charity Work

In line with the Swaminarayan Hindu ethos with which The Swaminarayan School operates, the School sees its role not only as a participator within the local community but also as a contributor. Hence the School has been involved in several charity drives in recent years. As a result, the children are inculcated with important character-building values such as giving, sharing, treating each other as equals, and helping those less fortunate than themselves. The immense sense of reward from having helped someone in need is one of the most important gifts the School is proud to offer to its pupils.

In their small but significant way, the pupils and staff of The Swaminarayan School have contributed to numerous local community projects as well as national and international charities and causes. Over the years, these have included:
