What is it...?
Day With India is an outreach event hosted by the
India Association of Greater Greenville (IAGG), to provide members
of the non-Indian community a unique opportunity to experience aspects
of Indian culture and heritage right here in Greenville, SC.
This family event offers something for everyone... a chance
to explore and experience an ancient exotic culture... enthralling live
dance & music performances ... authentic Indian cuisine catered by
area restaurants to tickle every palate... ethnic Indian merchandise from
reputed vendors priced to fit a value conscious shopper's budget ... and
fun activities designed to amaze, inform & entertain guests of various
age groups... all presented in a gala festival like setting.
The charity aspect
Each year, IAGG identified charity organizations receive
a portion of proceeds from the event to support their activities. So along
with having a really great time, you have the additional satisfaction
of knowing that you are helping others in their time of need.
This year, our event proceeds will help support activities
of A Child's Haven
Seriously...? A cultural event in current
economic climate...?
In spite of all round challenges this year, we felt the
show had to go on because
- The Day With India event brings people together, leading to a better
understanding of one another.
- It provides an opportunity, particularly valuable for young children,
to understand and appreciate cultural diversity.
- Proceeds from the event help support a deserving charity, helping
offset revenue losses typical when an economy is in recession.
