This October, Hindu American Seva Charities (HASC) launched UtsavSeva (FestivalSeva), an initiative to highlight the spiritual value of the major festival of that month, and will promote theme based community service throughout the year. Navratri, the nine nights to honor the Goddess, occurs in October so the theme is ShaktiSeva: service to the Feminine Principles, service that is woman-oriented.
