The first thing is perhaps creating an alliance of already existing numerous nepalese student associations spread across US and creating a platform like sajha or inside sajha or perhaps even a facebook group would suffice. Some tips should be posted for new comers or going to be new comers. Some indian student associations might have been of help to nepalese regarding pick-up service from airport and giving the shelter for initial few days: these are the most important things for new comers. There should be enough information posted about it - like what to expect and what not, and should be sustainable - such as charging some fees for the service (but should be comparatively less than taxi and staying at single bedroom).
The other thing that comes in my mind is creating a network for professionals (umbrella organization) which can even perhaps organize an event every year or in 2-3 years, but it shouldn't be oriented towards ANA style. It should be more like semi-conference style where there is an theme and people can meet each other and gain something with perhaps some key speakers, workshop (immigration, service to Nepal and so on) and later on recognizing (with distinguished award) to emerging nepalese.
There should be no place for POLITICS and the political leaders should NEVER be invited.
Like the last-poster's interest, some events could be organized where lone hearts could be paired. This has more potential for fund-raising.
It should not be another oganization which only sponsors some cheap artists from Nepal.
