GRADA-Greater Rayalaseema Association Of Dallas Area

GRADA was founded by fellow DFW Greater Rayalaseema peoples to help build a community that gives people of similar heritage a platform to share their values with each other and all of North Texas. Your active participation in various capacities is essential for the success of GRADA. We are very optimistic that GRADA will bring us together to conduct events, activities at social and professional level. GRADA requests and encourages all of the DFW Greater Rayalaseema peoples to join hands and come forward to build this emerging face of Greater Rayalaseema people in the DFW and North Texas region.

Preserve the culturally rich Greater Rayalaseema identity. Preserve and promote classic and ancient Telugu language to the next generations. Celebrate Greater Rayalaseema festivals in an integrated & inclusive manner. Preserve & promote rich heritage and family values to the next generations. Support charity in the country of residence (United States) and in the State of Andhra Pradesh in India. Facilitate business and professional networking. The fundamentals of the new GRADA organization are based on three “I”s (Inspiration, Interaction & Inclusion), which is fostering collaboration among people, transparency and accountability, inclusion of like-minded individuals. The new Greater Rayalaseema organization will follow the democratic process and will be abided by the by-laws and member mandates.

Inspired by the fundamentals of GRADA, we have an ongoing mission to give back to the DFW community that has given us the opportunity to meet like-minded people who share and practice the same core values instilled into us by our Greater Rayalaseema heritage. GRADA symbolizes Unity in Diversity, One platform for all, Perseverance, Integrity, Entrepreneurship and Good citizenship of all Greater Rayalaseema people.
