The Curriculum

We want to give you a peek at our curriculum so you can see how learning comes alive in Banyan Tree programs—and so educators, parents, and students everywhere can adapt these resources for their own classrooms and communities.

Our 3-Part Curriculum

  • South Asian History

    Our programs for youth embody the fun and discovery of climbing a Banyan Tree with your friends. We engage our youth in South Asian languages, history, dance, cooking, community organizing, and more — all while helping them build lasting, supportive friendships with peers and mentors.

  • Language

    Our adult programs include volunteering, yoga classes, dance camps, movie nights, and so much more. We know adults need spaces to stay connected to their roots, have fun, contribute to future generations, and live with a sense of deeper purpose. Adults carry the responsibility of nourishing the soil in which the next generation will grow — and they can’t do that without support!

  • Media Creation

    For our young hearts and wise souls, we offer programs for you to keep giving back, and to connect with like-minded people — From chess to gatherings hosted in different languages. Whether you are transitioning into retirement, new to the country, or just want company - we need you! We need your skills, expertise, recipes, warmth, and wisdom to keep our grove thriving, to share your stories, and to support the next generation.

Our Process

Here, creativity meets opportunity. Whatever you're building, we're here to help you take the first step with confidence. Driven by curiosity and built on purpose, this is where bold thinking meets thoughtful execution. Let’s create something meaningful together.
