Keshava seva samiti
Keshava Seva Samiti organizes its annual sports and cultural program "Bala Sangama", which brings together 3000 children aged 4 to 13 years from more than 150 Seva Basati’s (slums) of Bengaluru and engages them in sports competitions, exhibitions, cultural programs and many other activities that provide ample opportunities for them to showcase their hidden talents.
On the day of Balasangama, the venue comes alive as children gather to participate final-round sports competitions. Alongside sports, the finals present a series of cultural performances.
Balasangama is the annual event by Keshava Seva Samiti for children who are beneficiaries of the seva activities that are conducted in underprivileged communities across Bengaluru. Keshava Seva Samiti is actively working across North and Central Bengaluru, operating in 150 locations across 12 constituencies.
The Indian culture exhibition at Balasangama introduces children to the richness of Bharatiya traditions, heritage, values, and way of life through interactive displays and learning spaces. Alongside this, child rights awareness initiatives help children understand their rights, responsibilities, dignity, and role in building a just and respectful society.
Ammanna Kaitittu is a heartfelt tradition at Balasangama where volunteers bring home cooked meals and personally serve lunch to our children. Through Ammanna Kaitittu, Balasangama reflects the values of sharing, compassion, and community participation. Volunteers are warmly invited to be part of this meaningful experience by registering to contribute meals and serve children, making the day memorable not just through events, but through human connection and collective responsibility.
This event is bringing together thousands of children from unprevilaged communities onto a common platform. The event nurtures confidence, discipline, teamwork, cultural awareness, and leadership through sports, cultural, and value-based activities
Keshava Seva Samiti invites committed volunteers to be part of Balasangama - 2026 that celebrates confidence, culture, and community.
