ISKCON Vrindavan’s First Community Service Center 

Originally conceived by the Vrindavan Temple President, Pancagauda Prabhu and his wife, Gaura Purnima devi dasi, the project quickly became the nurtured baby of Iskcon’s Senior Vaishnava Women. Dedicated to serving Srila Prabhupada, these devotees met time and again to brainstorm the project that opened its doors on September 13, 2013, the glorious appearance day of Srimati Radharani, Sri Radhastami.

Kusha Devi Dasi, a Prabhupada disciple from Hawaii, was spearheading the project by becoming its first director. For more than six years she dedicatedly nurtured, managed and directed the Center in so many valuable ways with her sparkling personality and anxiously served the devotees. Thereafter, Kamala devi dasi took up most of the responsibilities as Kusha devi dasi was given other services and responsibilities back in Hawaii.
