Happy Nepali New Year 2078 B.S.

Namaste!
We hope you all are safe and in good health during this pandemic. We would heartily like to wish you and your family a very Happy Nepali New Year 2078 B.S. May this new year bring happiness and good health to you and your loved ones.

On this note, we would like to urge you and your loved ones to check if you qualify for Covid vaccine and get vaccinated at your earliest convenience. This is another step to keep you, your family and community in a safer position. Once everyone is vaccinated, we can return back to our normal lives and celebrate our upcoming events together in-person. We will continue to provide you with all the services from our community as we grow.

We have collected some information to help you make informed decisions regarding COVID-19 vaccination below :
