Mission in the West – CMW & CPW

To unify the rapidly growing Chinmaya Mission centres in the United States with a common vision and structure, Gurudev established an apex coordinating body –  Chinmaya Mission West (CMW). It was incorporated as a nonprofit in the San Francisco Bay Area in August 1975. Alongside, Chinmaya Publications West (CPW) was founded as a separate nonprofit to meet the increasing demand for Gurudev’s books and publications, later becoming the publication division of CMW.
