| What is CSB? |
| Community Services of Bangalore is a non-profit charitable organization set up in 1998. Our purpose is to provide a support group for newcomers to Bangalore and a forum for residents of Bangalore to meet and socialize with each other. As a community-focused group, CSB organizes activities which raise funds for local registered charities. |
| |
| Who are we? |
| We are a group of approximately 120 women, of whom half are Indian nationals and half are expatriates representing some 14 nationalities. This diversity of members is what makes CSB so special. Each member brings with her a wealth of talent, experience and organizational skills which they are happy to share with the membership and thereby with the community. |
