The Hindu Society of Calgary, formed in 1974, has a membership of approximately 1000 families and also looking into further extension of the existing facility for which a development permit has been obtainted. It provides religious, cultural and social services in Calgary and the surrounding area. With the help of its dedicated and generous members, the Society opened its first nondenominational Hindu Cultural Centre and Temple in 1990. Since then, in 1993 the Society purchased additional land, adjacent to the current premises, to meet the growing needs of the community. The Society is looking into using this land for building a cultural centre, priest's residential quarters and facility for the school.  Through the centre, the Hindus are reaffirming their heritage and leaving a legacy for their children. In addition, for all Canadians, the centre is a reminder of the diversity that has shaped this country.
