SYC has teamed up with the Guru Gobind Singh Ji’s Children’s Foundation (GGSCF) from Toronto for our latest project. The GGSCF is a children’s group dedicated to doing seva and helping those in need in their community, across Canada and around the world. To celebrate their 10th anniversary this year, a team of kids signed up to run across Canada with the goal of raising $110,000 for health care needs. $10,000 will be donated to the children’s hospital in each province, and an extra $10,000 will be given to a health centre in Liberia.

In Praise of Steel: Understanding Sikh Arms and Armour

If there's one thing that the Sikhs are universally known for, it is their reputation as fearsome warriors. From the times of their sixth spiritual leader, Guru Hargobind, who first took up arms against an oppressive Mughal Empire in the early 17th century, to their largely unsung contribution in the World Wars, the distinctive image of the Sikh as a warrior par excellence has endured for nearly four centuries. But what exactly can be said about the uniqueness of "Sikh" arms and armour? Collector and weapons enthusiast, Davinder Singh Toor, draws upon a wealth of imagery and artifacts from public and private collections around the world to answer this important question.
