Praveen Umapathy

I am a proud member of the Kannada community and honored to serve as a Board of Directors member of the Arizona Kannada Sangha. I strongly believe in preserving and promoting our rich Kannada language, culture, and traditions, and in passing these values on to future generations.

Being part of the Sangha gives me an opportunity to contribute to cultural, literary, and social initiatives that bring our community together. I value inclusiveness, community service, and meaningful connections among families, youth, and seniors, while celebrating our shared heritage.

It is a privilege to work alongside dedicated board members and volunteers to nurture a vibrant, united Kannada community and uphold the spirit of “ಕನ್ನಡ ನುಡಿ, ಕನ್ನಡ ನಾಡು, ಕನ್ನಡ ಸಂಸ್ಕೃತಿ.”
