Chai and Chit Chat

A South Asian Family for North Dallas.

Growing up in South Asia you are never alone there is always family around cousins, aunties, uncles not to mention the neighbors and friends. Communities watched out for one another. If you were new in the area they would pepper you with questions till they figure out how you plug into the community. Eventually they will determine who you know that they know or who you know that someone they know might know.

Then comes the day of the big move and suddenly there is no family no friends no one that connects and decides how you fit in. Months or even years may pass without a single connection.

C3 tries to fix that. Through Community in small and large groups, National holidays celebrations, karaoke, Movie Nights and of course lots of Chai.

Focus Areas

Though we have a large variety of groups we have a few areas we try to focus on.

New Brides

Specifically the wives of south asian men coming into the DFW area to work. Being home alone those first few weeks as a new bride in a strange area can be a stressful and trying time but its easier with some friends to help you manage.

Fathers and Sons

Teaching Boys to be men is easier with a group. C3 for men helps fathers and sons navigate those hard years from 10 to 18 by offering outdoor activitees teach outdoor skills like camping, hiking and caring for what God has given us on this earth.

Working Women

Between a full time job and a demanding family its hard to find "Me" time. With multiple groups doing multiple things every week it's easier to find a time to sneak away and laugh a bit with others going through the same thing

When Life Hurts

Life can be hard and sometimes it just plain hurts. Plans fail and you end up without anyone to turn to and no idea what to do. We aren't experts but sometimes just having a group to talk to over a cup of Chai can help.

Womens Groups

The C3 membership is divided up into a variety of small groups of 100 or less Focused around a specific area of interest.
