A Space Where Women Lift Each Other Up
From empowerment workshops to cultural events, Mithra is where women in the MMA community connect and thrive together.
About Mithra
Mithra is MMA's women's initiative, created to be a strong support network for women in our Malayalee community. Whether you're new to Minnesota or have been here for decades, Mithra is a space where you can be yourself, share experiences, and grow alongside other women who understand your world.
We believe in women supporting women. Mithra exists so that no woman in our community has to navigate life's challenges alone.
What We Do
Mithra organizes events and activities throughout the year that focus on wellness, empowerment, creativity, and connection. From International Women's Day celebrations to chai-time gatherings, every Mithra event is designed to bring women together in a meaningful way.
How to Get Involved
All women and girls in the MMA community are welcome to participate in Mithra events and activities. MMA membership is required. If you'd like to volunteer, lead a session, or suggest an idea, reach out to us at mithra@mnmalayalee.org.
