WHO WE ARE...
ಜಯ ಭಾರತ ಜನನಿಯ ತನುಜಾತೆ,
ಜಯ ಹೇ ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ ಮಾತೆ!
Kannada Koota Franconia (KKF) is a socio-cultural non-profit organization formed by the people hailing from the state of Karnataka, India that serves to promote cultural and social activities of Kannadigas in the Franconia region of Bayern state, Germany. Our mission is to promote the Kannada cultural and educational ties within the community, to promote events and activities that help maintain the cultural heritage of Karnataka.
Kannada Koota Franconia events always provide an opportunity for Kannadigas (and their family and friends) to interact with fellow Kannadigas and friends, celebrate festivals and enjoy delicious authentic home-made food. Most importantly, provides a forum where the children of Kannadigas are able to imbibe the culture, so that their ties to their motherland are intact even though they are living far away from family and relatives.

"Namma Kannada Shaale" for kids & teens (4+ yrs) is an initiative to encourage our kids to learn Kannada language, literature and culture, formalizing with a proper classroom environment (online &/or offline) and course materials.
We are working out on a collaboration with "Kannada Praadhikaara and Namma Kannada Shaale - Bavaria" and other Kannada sanghas across Germany / Europe to make this big and successful.
