Young Jains of America
9th Biennial Convention
New Brunswick, NJ
Dear Young Jains of America:
On behalf of the JAINA Executive Committee and Board of Directors, I applaud the tremendous efforts of the YJA Board, Convention Committee, and numerous volunteers towards conducting a convention of this magnitude. Thank you for inviting me to this 9th Biennial YJA Convention. I am so pleased to participate, and look forward to meeting the more than 700 youth attendees, including those attending from India, UK, and Australia. YJA Convention 2010: Inspire. Connect. Do the Jain Thing. is sure to be an incredible experience that will foster spiritual growth and lasting connections for Jain youth throughout North America and the world.
Youth leadership and participation in events such as this are essential to ensuring the preservation, evolution, and growth of the Jain way of life. Since its founding in 1991, YJA continues to be a model for Jain unity by inspiring other Jain youth groups in India, UK, Australia, Kenya, and Singapore to take action in their communities. JAINA is very proud of the leadership skills YJA imparts on its members and looks forward to the day when JAINA is headed by YJA alumni. The next JAINA Convention will be held in Houston in July 2011, and I invite all Jain youth to take active part in the convention's planning.
July 2010
I hope you all truly enjoy YJA Convention 2010, and gain a wide variety of knowledge, lifelong friendships, and an experience you will cherish forever.
With best regards,
lat gen
