Established in 1966, the HSS has branches all over the world. But the US chapter is known to be both critical and influential as the country has 146 branches of this organization. In the US, the HSS is registered as a non-profit organisation. Sangh is inspired by the idea that the whole world is one family and conducts activities across the US in order to spread this message widely.
