SIKH HERITAGE MONTH–VAND CHAKNA: Vand Chakna is one of the three pillars of Sikhi. It means to help others in need and to share what one has with others. It is a way of breaking down caste systems and class systems by coming together and sharing one’s achievements to help achieve a sense of community. “Sarbat Da Bhala” means the welfare of all, and it is put into practice by engaging in Vand Chakna. It is very important for Sikhs to incorporate this to their everyday life. J Dhinsa,Senior Leadership/Ms. Smith
