    Newark Pavilion – 6430 Thornton Ave, Newark, CA 94560-3736, USA

    Durga Puja is just around the corner. Maa Durga came to visit us from her abode in the Himalayas. Just like every year, Sanskriti was worshipping Maa Durga by hosting the Puja this year.

    But this time the occasion is a little different. We have seen the destructive power of Mother Nature through two hurricanes – Harvey and Irma. Many of our friends and families have lost a lot as a result of these tragic events.

    Sanskriti would like to stand next to those who have been affected. They are thinking and praying for them and want to help them during this time.
