Currently JAINA World Community Service is doing the social and humanitarian activities in the following areas:
World Community Service
1. Sending used clothes to India.
2. Sending financial help when there is a natural disaster. 3. Sending used and new medical equipment to needy clinics in India.
4. Procuring and sending Soybeans as a high protein for some Specific charitable trust in India.
5. Create an escrow account for a reserve fund for use in disasters immediately and raise funds for disaster and replenish it from
time to time.
We are in a position to collect five to six 20 feet containers of used clothes to India. Our main problem is the cost of shipping them to India. Today we have met one target for 200 Patron Members. Now our other target is to raise a reserve fund of at least
Registration No. A6013
Jain Education International
$100,000 for World Community Service. We plan to raise this fund from all individuals who believe in this humanitarian work. I request you to contribute generously and help us to raise funds from your friends. A small amount from all the friends will be more than enough to meet this goal.
We send help to India and any other part of the world where the help is needed, upon committee approval. Every year we plan to generate $100,000 to cover our cost. We plan to help and work with Virayatan in Bihar and Diwaliben Trust in Bombay and some other similar organizations which are doing humane and social work in most efficient way.
Last year JAINA received a Certificate of Registration from the U.S. Agency for the International Development, USAID. We have to bestow special congratulations and thanks to Dr. Dhiraj H. Shah for his untiring efforts to achieve this recognition. There are only two organizations which are certified by this agency: Share & Care and JAINA. We appreciate the efforts of Dhirajbhai and Prakash Mehta who have worked for so long to receive this status. Now it is our responsibility to use this facility.
Feel free to ask any questions, or your constructive suggestions to any one of the following: Bachubhai S. Ajmera Ph: 301/4312525. Prakash M. Mehta, Bhadresh R. Dhila.
