As our membership and participants [email protected] have grown, we now have several young families and added elderly members joining our Society. In order to increase the service to them, the following projects have been initiated Board of Trustees Chair Person Kitchen Renovation: In order to serve additional society members, we needed to Kundan Sata (248)-745-0419 increase the number of stoves used for Eekshaana, Aayimbil Oli and other major events. For the renovation, we removed the dishwasher that remained unused for Vice Chairman several years and created space for additional storage and additional electric ovens. Pritish Shah (248)-686-4358 We also removed the old gas powered convection oven and put in two new stoves in Treasurer its place. We needed to comply with fire ordinances and our choices were to either Kirti Shah (519)-966-6643 (Windsor) increase the size of fire canopy (very expensive) to accommodate the two new stoves, or to remove the dishwasher and create a space for storage and for electric ovens. We Trustees also had a need to add a washer and dryer as all the towels needed to be reused and Chetani Koradia (248)-982-9821 we were finding it difficult to take the dirty towels to a members home, wash it and bring it back – especially when it was needed on a daily basis. This project is currently Jaya Shah (248)-681-5233 80% completed and we expect to complete the project soon. Jinansh Shah (248)-252-5958 Canopy Project: In order to increase the safety during bad weather, BOT and EC Ankil Shah decided to look into building a canopy which would provide protection from (734)-223-9592 inclement weather. This will make it easier for members to pick up and drop off senior members of our society. The project is in initial stages and due diligence is being done to ensure that the beauty of our Temple does not get diminished. More updates will be provided in the future. Senior Programs: Under the leadership of Vastupal bhai and Rameshbhai, this Pujari Kanchan Patel program is progressing wonderfully.

  • Jai Jinendra! Dear Young Minds Readers: We Are So Excited to Get Started on This Year’S YJA Adventure! If You Didn’T Know, This Is YJA’S 25Th Anniversary
    Young Minds Young Jains of America | Established 1991 Jai Jinendra! Dear Young Minds readers: We are so excited to get started on this year’s YJA adventure! If you didn’t know, this is YJA’s 25th anniversary. There’s a lot to celebrate - 12 successful conventions, over 60 issues of the Young Minds newsletter, dozens of regional dinners, events, and retreats, and countless Jain youth connected - and we’re both humbled and motivated by the challenge of making this YJA’s best year yet. This organization has undoubtedly strengthened our Jain communities across the country, and we want to ensure it continues to do so for the next 25 years and beyond. Our 2016-17 Executive Board met a few weeks ago in New Jersey for a weekend of strategizing, planning, and bonding over the excitement of working together this year. We could spend a lot of time telling you about all of the awesome things - new retreat sessions, new National Dinner locations, community service events, an updated website, and more - that our board is interested in doing, but we want you to share your ideas as well! Every Jain youth in this country has a different experience with their faith, and is looking for different things from YJA. We want to hear your stories - head to yja.org to meet our new board and reach out to them anytime with program suggestions, questions, or just to learn more about how you can get involved. Make sure to follow YJA on all of your favorite social media channels - Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat - to keep track of upcoming events, learn fun Jain facts, and connect with other young Jains across the country.
