Happy Nepali New Year 2074!

Respected Nepali Community Members in NASeA Region and Globally,

Respected Editors, Online/TV/Print Media in USA and around the globe,

Happy Nepali New Year 2074!

On behalf of Nepalese Association in Southeast America (NASeA) together with my officers, all former Presidents and advisers, and well-wishers of NASeA, I extend to you all, good health and prosperous life ahead during the auspicious occasion of Nepali New Year 2074!

As we welcome Nepali New Year 2074, we proudly invite you all to be the part of 13th NASeA/ANMA Joint Convention 2017 in magnificent city of Charlotte, NC during the Labor Day weekend i.e. September 2-4, 2017. Please be advised to lock this date and stay tuned for further announcements.

NASeA proudly marked her Silver Jubilee in 2016 with various activities and officially declared to continue the spirit of NASeA Silver Jubilee 2016 to the 2017 convention. To honor this, we successfully completed Blood Donation Drive in 6 States (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina and South Carolina) where 93 Social Heroes donated blood saving 279 lives.

Furthermore, during the joint convention we will proudly honor “Silver Jubilee Medal” to all distinguished individuals for their outstanding contribution towards NASeA. We will officially release NASeA Silver Jubilee Bisheshanka. NASeA Life Member is indeed a Life Time pride and we encourage all to take the benefit of special Silver Jubilee discount and be NASeA’s prestigious life member.

Welcoming Nepali New Year 2074, I would like to propose NASeA together with her partner State organizations will work towards sponsoring “ADOPT-A-HIGH WAY” in the respective regions and community. Nepal Center of North Carolina (NCNC), North Carolina has been the 1st State to Adopt-A-High-Way in our region and now from this year the town of Morrisville, NC has officially declared the third Saturday of April as a Nepal Day. This is the first time any city in North Carolina or NASeA region has recognized Nepal. These types of activities will indeed open the door for Nepali organizations “Civic Engagement” in all fronts to best serve our village, city, town and state of this great nation and keep our Nepali American identity alive.

Let us together Welcome Nepali New Year 2074 with Pride!

During this special occasion, let us all meet, greet and welcome Nepali New Year B.S. 2074 keeping our rich traditions alive here in the US far from our motherland Nepal. I join NASeA Interstate Coordinating Committee Chair Udhav Karki in circulating the announcement of various State/Student and Community organizations Nepali New Year 2074 celebration events to be held in various cities and states of our region.

With due respect, I would like to inform you all that I will be participating in three regions of North Carolina i.e. Morrisville-NCNC, High Point-TNCC and Charlotte-GCNA during this New year’s event and encourage all our officers, advisers, Former Presidents, Life Members to represent NASeA and be the part of local event to welcome Nepali New Year 2074!
