Service to humanity: the Dharm Shala at 103

Kella and Pamela Ramsaroop

Today the Dharm Shala Home of Benevolence celebrates its 103rd anniversary and the granddaughters of the founder say that it continues to serve those who are in need.

Kella and Pamela Ramsaroop continue the tradition of their father Hari Saran Ramsaroop Maharaj who died in 2013. He had taken the mantle from his father, Pandit Ramsaroop, who opened the home in 1921 with his own funds.

“The 11 Dharm Shala buildings are all solely devoted to humanitarian charity, free of charge,” the two sisters said in a brief release to mark the anniversary.
