About Us
Click Here to Sign Up for The Newsletter!The first Hindu Heritage Youth Camp (HHYC) started in 1985. The idea was simple – inspire the younger generation by teaching them the rich values and ideas of their heritage.
Our camp takes place over 5 days at Victory Camp. These days are filled with outdoor games, cultural activities, educations sessions, delicious food, and awesome friends.
All of this is made possible by our counselors, many of whom are former campers, that spend the course of their summer planning for HHYC. This ranges from becoming dodgeball experts to fine tuning presentations on Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras.
In the end, we hope this experience allows campers to walk away with confidence, lifelong friends, and an understanding of what it means to be a Hindu.
Hindu Heritage Youth Camp is done in partnership with Hindus of Greater Houston. To learn more about HGH and how they help support the community, visit their website at www.hindusofhouston.org
