I would like to wish you very happy and healthy New Year 2067 on behalf of entire NCNC BoD, and thank you for coming to participate in this celebration. I hope this picnic (today) gives us all the chance to exchange warm wishes, make new friends and renew old ones. I also hope that these changing leaves (with the season) would inspire us all to tighten the bond of our friendship, help each other in our need, and serve the community even better in coming days.
It is our goal and desire that event like this provide us the opportunity to network, share information’s and give us means to come closer and lift each other and the community as a whole.
Thank you for the kind of support you have been giving us. With this kind of interest and support we have been able to accomplish things like Nepali Class for kids, putting up our own web site, and working towards purchasing a land for community center in such a short span of time.
Either its burned Bhutanese victims in Greensboro or earthquake victims in Haiti, we have been able to stretch our arms and help because of your support.
In coming days, we will be working and co-ordinating with other Nepali organizations throughout USA, so we can share our success with them and replicate theirs in our place.
We hope you will continuously provide us your support in coming days by either being NCNC life member, helping our Nepali class financially or by sending your valuable feed back and suggestions via our web site.
Naya Barshako Shubha-Kamana!
Yours:
Arun Dhital
