THE Guyana Hindu Youth Camp (GHYC) has officially commenced, aiming to deepen young people’s connection to dharma while promoting the rich cultural heritage of Sanatan Dharma. The camp, which began in February and runs through March 2025, is being held at five different mandirs across Guyana.

The participating mandirs hosting the camp sessions include the Anna Regina Mandir (Camp A), Leonora Hindu Mandir (Camp B), Soesdyke Vishnu Mandir (Camp C), Shree Ram Ayodha Mandir (Camp D), and Bush Lot Vishnu Mandir (Camp E). Each location hosts a two-day weekend camp, facilitated by GHYC members in collaboration with the respective mandirs.

Approximately 500 children are expected to participate in total, with 450 attendees recorded at the first four completed camps. The final camp is anticipated to welcome another 150 participants.
The camps are designed to offer spiritual enrichment by teaching Hindu scriptures and their practical applications in daily life. Additionally, they serve to strengthen community bonds, promote cultural awareness, and instill values of respect, confidence, and unity among participants.

A significant milestone was also reached on Sunday with the launch of GHYC’s first Youth Arm. This initiative is aimed at empowering young individuals in various communities to assume leadership roles and responsibilities. By building key skills, these future leaders will be equipped to educate and guide their peers, ensuring the continued growth and preservation of Sanatan Dharma in Guyana.
The GHYC’s efforts highlight a commitment to youth empowerment, spiritual education, and cultural preservation, reinforcing the values of unity and leadership within the Hindu community.
