The annual showcase included Bollywood-inspired choreography, narrative sequences, and community-driven performances. The evening closed with a high-school ensemble presenting a staged Indian wedding sequence, integrating dance and storytelling.

“Dance is our language, but service is our purpose—and this year showed what our community can do when both come together,” co-founder Megha Chandramohan said. She added that the attendance reflected sustained community support for the initiative.

Co-founder Ami Sanjanwala said the event demonstrated broad participation. “When people from so many backgrounds come together to celebrate culture and support kids in our city, it proves what is possible. ‘INfusion’ isn’t just a show — it’s a commitment to lift each other up.”

According to publicly available figures, the organization served more than 9,000 children in 2024, and reports support for over 220,000 children since its inception.

The Love Fund for Children, established in 1982, provides beds, clothing, hygiene supplies, therapeutic tools, school essentials, and other support for children in the Greater Kansas City metropolitan area.

‘INfusion’ has expanded beyond its origins as a small community gathering into a large-scale annual production. Earlier editions supported Zero Reasons Why in 2022, Variety KC in 2023, and Braden’s Hope for Childhood Cancer in 2024.

Seva Dance operates as a youth cultural-dance nonprofit in Kansas City, with programs focused on Indian cultural dance and community engagement.
