Anita was one of the Founding Directors of the Kannada Sangha of Arizona (KSA) in 1988. She enjoyed serving in various capacities over the decades, including being the Chair of the Youth Committee for quite a few tenures. KSA continues to be a socio-cultural and educational non-profit organization in the valley.

Anita strongly believes in and promotes the adage of "prevention is better than cure."

Anita has been an active Board member and Hindu faith rep in the Arizona Interfaith Organization since January 2014. Hailing from a family with generations of Hindu faith background, she chose to dedicate some time to lead a monthly Hindu worship assembly for 27 years. Anita loves the mission of the AZIFM, the credo of the Golden Rule, and playing pickleball!
