“🌸 **Teej 2026 – Community Update** 🇳🇵

Dear Community Members,

It is with a heavy heart that we would like to share that our **Teej celebration planned for 12 September 2026 has been cancelled** in light of the recent devastating floods and landslides in Nepal.

At this time, we feel it is not the right moment for celebration. Our thoughts and hearts remain with everyone affected, especially the families who are going through such a difficult time.

We would like to sincerely thank everyone who supported the Teej event, including our performers, volunteers, sponsors and the wider community. Your enthusiasm, understanding and support have meant so much to us. ❤️

As a small gesture of solidarity, **CQNA will contribute a portion of the funds allocated for the Teej celebration towards the relief efforts, along with the donations collected from our members so far.** 🇳🇵🙏

We know how strong and resilient we Nepalese are, and we believe that together we will get through this difficult time and bounce back stronger.

When things settle and life begins to return to normal in Nepal, we look forward to bringing our community together again to celebrate **our culture, traditions, unity and, most importantly, being together.**

Thank you all for your understanding, kindness and continued support.

**Our thoughts are with Nepal. 🇳🇵❤️
We stand together as one community.**

With respect and gratitude,
**Central Queensland Nepalese Association (CQNA) 🙏**”
