Dear Community Members,

The Nepali Community in America is going through change.  We are slowly emerging as a diversified yet unified voice. So it is the call of the time to coordinate and promote community wide interests. Independent journalism has been active in North America for many years now and has a crucial role in our community.

The time is now ripe for media to focus on coordinating and promoting positive aspects of our community.

Therefore we are pleased to announce the formation, in keeping with the spirit and objectives of the national platform organization Association of Nepalis in the Americas (ANA), 

North America Nepali Media Club.

The Media Club will be a Functional Program that will coordinate and focus on positive news and other aspects of the community. It will seek to promote good work of individuals, groups, and organizations of the Nepali Diaspora. It will be an autonomous entity within ANA and affiliated with all the local and regional organizations through it.

We will collect the achievements gained by Nepali in North America and highlight through different media - print, web, radio and TV with one overarching goal of making Nepali Community strong in North America. We will seek to make this become professional and act as a conduit whenever necessary with the mainstream media in North America. It is important for the community to reinforce positive developments internally and accentuate it externally to the mass media and general population. The time has come.

Following are the initial members of the Media Club, all of whom have made positive impacts in the society and are practicing accomplished journalists.
