UMass Tamil Student Association

Who we are
The Tamil Student Association (TSA) is a student-run organization at UMass Amherst that brings together Tamil students and anyone interested in the Tamil language, culture, and traditions. We’re a community where students can connect with their roots, find a home away from home, and share our culture with the wider campus.

Why we’re doing this
Throughout the year, we host cultural celebrations, social gatherings, and community events, such as [Pongal, Diwali, cultural nights]. These events are what keep our community active and growing, but they come with real costs: decorations, supplies, food, and venue needs. As a student organization, we rely on support from people like you to keep putting them on and to make each one better than the last.

Why you should help
Your donation goes directly into the events that bring students together. Every contribution helps us celebrate Tamil culture on campus, welcome new students into a supportive community, and give members a space to belong. Whether you’re an alum, a parent, a friend, or someone who simply believes in cultural community on campus, your support makes a real difference. No gift is too small.
