Purpose

Built on mutual care and shared memory

UTCA exists to strengthen connection among Tamang families and to preserve stories and culture with care. Every gathering, archive entry, and financial report is guided by transparency and respect for the people involved.

Since our founding, we have grown from informal family meetings into an organized community with working committees, elder guidance, and a growing archive of Tamang language, music, dance, food, and festivals.
