Dear visitors,
Hello and Namaste.
Thank you for giving us your invaluable time and visiting our official website.
We feel very glad to share you this information that the America Nepal Helping Society (ANHS) is a registered non-profit organization and it is based in Northern Virginia. We are a community based organization, serving exclusively in Nepal and the United States of America since the initiation of ANHS in 2008 .
We regularly organize and celebrate a number of annual events that represent the Nepali culture, tradition and rituals, i.e. Teej, Bada Dashain, Tihar etc. An annual picnic carnival is also a great occasion for all the interested American Nepalese individuals and the families. The mission behind all these celebrations is to promote and help for the preservation of the Nepali socio-cultural value in the USA.
We also provide support for individuals or the organizations to promote Nepali cultural as well as educational activities.
Besides organizing health fair and talk programs, ANHS, as a strong believer in philanthropy, is always prepared to extend its helping hands for the needy Nepalese individuals.
One of our fundamental program, developed as ANHS Academy, is positively running since February 2016. The academy committed to provide quality Nepali education, with a goal of promoting as well as preserving Nepalese culture and heritage among the Nepalese community.
I humbly appreciate to all our members, supporters and donors without whom the ANHS activities and programs are not made possible. All of you have contributed charitably and greatly to our cause. I am confident that all such cooperation and contribution, large or small, from you will continue on every occasion in the days ahead.
