PIPPAL (Partnership In Promoting Punjabi Art and Literature)

Celebrating Punjabi Art and Literature

 

Partnership in Promoting Punjabi Art and Literature (PIPPAL) – a U.S. nonprofit organization was formed in 2013 to serve as a forum for promoting and popularizing Punjabi language amongst the young generation by producing appealing art and literature.

Our Work

During the last seven years, PIPPAL through its project, Fascinating Folktales of Punjab, has successfully reached thousands of young children and their parents, all over the world, instilling in them love for the richness and beauty of the Punjabi language and literature through its nine illustrated folktales books in printed and audio formats.

Meet The Author

Gurmeet Kaur is a mother of two, resides in Atlanta, GA. She worked as an Engineer & Software Architect in the US for 25 years before she decided to dedicate herself to the cause of preserving Punjabi language for children; as she believes that mother language and cultural heritage are children’s inalienable rights.

In the last six years her nine books have inspired thousands of children all over the world to connect to their Mother Language. She runs a non-profit organization which is now providing dual language books to underprivileged children in Punjab to restore the lost dignity and pride in their language.

In 2018, She launched the first ever children’s book for the children of Punjab on both sides of the barbed-wire-fence — the border between India and Pakistan, in both Punjabi language scripts (Gurmukhi & Shahmukhi) and English translations. 

Besides her children’s literacy project in their Mother language Gurmeet Kaur is working on saving Sikh heritage in Punjab as a children’s rights issue.
