Jain Social Group - Los Angeles by Dhirenbhai Mehta
JSG-LA has been more than just a vehicle to having active social lives. It serves as an integration and the backbone of the Jain community in the metropolitan Los Angeles. JSG-LA has organized activities such as entertainment programs, overnight picnics, talent shows, dayaro, day cruise, camping, picnics and dramas. We have initiated and co-sponsored medical expos at the Jain Center and contributed to worthy causes here and abroad.
JSG-LA is part of an international organization with over 175 chapters and more than 75,000 members worldwide on six continents. In addition to most of the chapters being in India, there are about 20 overseas chapters.
The major objectives of JSG are to:
Promote fellowship and fraternity among the members of Jain community, strive for their progress and prosperity, and foster unity among all Jains.
•
Organize conferences and joint programs of JSG with other social, cultural, and religious organizations
Arrange meetings with visiting dignitaries
The membership in JSG is open to all Jains. The Jain Center and JSG-LA have worked together for the benefit of the entire Jain community. We congratulate the Jain Center on the 10th anniversary of Jain Bhavan and look forward to many more years of cooperative activities.
