ABOUT NANC
The Nepali Association of Northern California (NANC) was officially established in 1994 by a group of Nepali immigrants living in San Francisco Bay Areas. This first Nepali community organization in the Bay Area was formed as a non-political community with a purpose to promote and preserve Nepali cultural traditions, and language among the Nepali diaspora in Northern California. Prior to the formal establishment of NANC, Nepali community in the Bay Areas gathered in small groups and celebrated most of the Nepali festivals, such as Dashain, Tihar, Teej, Buddha Purnima together and tried to create a small home oceans away from their birth land.
