The moments between the moments 🤍 The laughter, t The moments between the moments 🤍

The laughter, the chaos, the missed cues, the deep breaths, and the joy that happens in between. 
As we wrap up this year, we wanted to share a glimpse of the very human, very real moments that make this work what it is. Behind every program, event, and win is a team and a community showing up with care, humor, and heart.
Here’s to everything we’ve built together, the lessons we’re carrying forward, and all that’s still ahead. We’re grateful for every laugh, every connection, and every person who makes this community possible.

Today is the last day to support our work this year. If you’re able, a gift today helps carry this care into the year ahead and ensures these moments continue.
Thank you for being part of our story.

Onward, together 💛

What an unforgettable evening ✨💖 Thank you to eve What an unforgettable evening ✨💖

Thank you to everyone who came out to the screening of @saffronkingdomfilm at our LA office. Your presence, your questions, and the care you brought to this conversation made the night feel meaningful and communal. We’re especially grateful to @arfat_a_sheikh and the artists behind the film for sharing their vision, their vulnerability, and their time with us afterward. Your work sparked conversations we’ll carry with us for a long time.

If @saffronkingdomfilm moved you, or if you have not had the chance to see it yet, we encourage you to continue supporting this powerful project. 

Special shoutout to @kashmiriteahouse for providing the beautiful nun chai and warmth that rounded out the evening.

On Sunday, November 9th, South Asian Network partn On Sunday, November 9th, South Asian Network partnered with CAAPIA to bring this year’s State of Little Bangladesh to life, creating a space for our community to gather, reflect, and envision the year ahead.

Our roundtable discussions surfaced several important community priorities, including language access, immigration support, lack of community spaces, education needs, and overall community safety. These conversations reminded us how essential it is to build systems rooted in cultural understanding and real, lived experiences.

We were grateful to have partnered with CAAPIA in bringing this gathering to life, and appreciate them for capturing some of the photos featured here. Here’s to continuing this work together, rooted in care, culture, and community strength 💛
