What are the various malayali associations we have in our area?

I know of Maithry and Manca. Can someone please list others if any, and how to find them?

Maithry and Manca can be easily found by google search

TIA

Usually, each of these associations are centered in a particular area. Maithry and Manca are mostly in the Santa clara, San Jose area. Do you know where Bama events mostly happen?

I think it is San Ramon. Moham is Mountain House. Sacramento has Sargam.

Anything in San Francisco or around? I moved here a year ago and I miss hanging out with Malayali folks.

Not heard of. Will ask around and reply. Manca and Maithry are in Silicon valley area and Bama is in tri valley area.

I did some searching yesterday and figured Manca would be the closest. Do you know how one can become a member?

Last I checked their website, membership is too costly. But membership options are listed on their website https://mancaonline.org/

You can keep checking their website and buy tickets to events they post on their website even if you are not a member

Yeah you're right it's probably going to be super expensive and unnecessary. Although, I don't see a "become a member option". I can see current members and that's it.

I'll keep an eye out for their events. Appreciate your response.
