OUR TEAM

Bala Mandir USA was established in 2023 by friends of Bala Mandir. The objective of the organization is to help raise funds for Bala Mandir’s activities and new initiatives, and to service and support US-based donors as needed.

The following are the directors of Bala Mandir USA

Krishnan Chandrasekhar

Aarthi Ramalingam

Besides the above directors, a group of well wishers are coming together to help Bala Mandir establish its USA operations.

Bala Mandir Kamaraj Trust is a registered society under the Tamil Nadu Societies Registration Act, 1975. Elected from and by the General Body of volunteer members, an “Executive Committee” (EC) of 21 committed members volunteer their time and expertise for the specific responsibilities they undertake within Bala Mandir. A few among them hold office to oversee the efficient and smooth functioning of its various service activities. Headed by the President, Honorary General Secretary and Treasurer, the EC meets quarterly to review the progress in each area and plan for corrective actions where necessary.

Bala Mandir’s activities are divided into “units” which work independently in specific areas. They are supported by a common group of support services including Accounts, HR, IT, Donations and Sponsorship, Administration etc. which enable the unit to concentrate on the core activities. Each unit’s operations come under the charge of member(s) who guide and support the operating teams, who are mostly paid employees.

At an overall advisory level there is a Board of Trustees – persons with experience and eminence who safeguard the assets of the organisation, play the role of friends, philosophers and guides to management team of Bala Mandir, and ensure that the initiatives for the future are well directed and pursued with rigour. The following is the list of Trustees of Bala Mandir.
