About Us

The Sikh Faith is the 5th largest faith in the world, with nearly 24 million followers. Sikhi shares with the world a message of truth, love and justice, remembrance of One God at all times, universal equality- irrespective of race, gender, wealth, religion, origin and social standing. The Sikh Students Association's (SSA) purpose is to unify UC Irvine's Sikh Community through events geared toward seva (selfless service), education and discussion about Sikh history and humanitarian issues facing the Sikh as well as the global community, spiritual experience through keertan (singing of hymns) and paath (prayer), networking with SSAs throughout California through the Sikh Student Collaborative, and social events to build friendships within the club.
