Objective: JAINA has very limited sources of revenue and therefore must depend upon the generosity of its members for financial support. It has experienced financial difficulties off and on in the past but the time has come to address this ongoing problem once for all and make JAINA a powerful force.

The Patron Program is aimed at making JAINA financially solvent on a continual basis. Please bear in mind that we cannot operate the organization effectively without a strong financial back up from the community.

Please note that we will keep the donation received from the Grand, Gold, and Silver Patrons in a separate “Endowment Fund”. We intend to use only the interest from this fund to meet the day-to-day expenses of running JAINA. We strongly urge the community to become either a Grand or a Gold or a Silver Patron and make JAINA financially healthy for years to come.
