Namaste!

You have come to the right place to learn about how the Nepalese Community of Hampton Roads is making a difference in the community, and abroad.

Nepalese Community of Hampton Roads (NCHR) is a non-profit organization. It was established within a month as an immediate outreach and support for victims of devastating 7.8 magnitude earthquake that hit Nepal in April, 2015.

Since that time NCHR has been involved in various fund-raising events around Hampton Roads and have donated to charity organizations not only to the victims in Nepal, but also are serving local community as a whole.

With cultural programs, picnics, and other networking events, NCHR aims to bring awareness about Nepalese tradition in hopes of bringing together all the Nepalese community in the region.
