Being far from friends and family and  away from your home insinuate a feeling of emptiness. It is a daunting task to reestablish your identity and strike a balance between the cross border cultures as well. These are the times that remind you of home.

We realised that this desolation can only be filled if we start building a second home away from home. The aspiration was to integrate like minded people and give each other an opportunity to communicate, collaborate and celebrate. We decided to create a community wherein we can share and help each other, multiply the happiness and divide each others’ sorrow.

With this is mind, Anandadhara – a non profit organisation was born in April 2017.

Anandadhara, if literally translated means a stream of happiness. And that’s what we would like to be for everybody.

We, here at Anadadhara are an amalgamation of expats who strive hard to help the community and people in it.

We surely do not want to typecast ourselves as only a Bengali association rather  we are an association who uphold various cultures , adapt to changes but still remain grounded and aware of our roots.

We may struggle, quarrel, resign or fail but we would rise up to the occasion and deliver to the best of our abilities.

Anandadhara is an emotion.

Look within yourself and you will find a part of Anandadhara in you!
