Colorado Sikhs, in collaboration with Alpine Archaeological Consultants & The Sikh American History Project, is excited to share their newest project with the State Historical Fund of Colorado. Colorado Sikhs is a community-based, nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization founded in 2012 to serve the needs of the growing population of Sikhs throughout Colorado. The mission of Colorado Sikhs is to promote diversity, understanding, and community development through education and civic engagement to create mutually respectful relationships with all Colorado citizens and communities.

 

This project is aimed to collect, document, and share the history of Sikhs in Colorado. By building the capacity of the Sikh community to tell and control their own stories, this project is positioned to serve as a bridge for reinforcing the understanding that the Sikh community's history is part of Colorado’s history.
