Donation Overview

Nagarathars are known for charitable contributions and NSNA has been playing a significant role over the years in helping less fortunate Nagarathars. Nagarathars in North America have contributed generously for the upliftment of our community. NSNA would like to thank all the sponsors and request your continued support and generous contributions towards a noble cause of helping our Nagarathar community for their education, marriage, health and humanitarian, religious, sports, and youth Nagarathars needs.

Awareness about the assistance offered by NSNA is so much that NSNA receives significant number of applications for Educational and Marriage assistance every year. NSNA committee has introduced some new funds where you can contribute even smaller amounts.
