JAINA has launched a new  Campus Outreach Initiative to connect you to local Jain Sangh near your college campus, guide formation of Jain Clubs on

Campus and connect you to fellow Jain Students on your and nearby campuses.

 

JAINA has recently requested all Jain Sangh Presidents to identify a coordinator for nearby college campuses. We are beginning to receive overwhelming support from local Jain Sanghs for this important initiative. Local Jain Sangh Co-ordinator may contact you to invite you to 2008 Mahavir Nirvana Program. Please also feel free to visit web site of local Jain Sangh for Mahavir Nirvana program schedule. Alternately, please contact any Campus Outreach Committee member if you wish to participate in Mahavir Nirvana program near your campus. Mahavir Nirvana is on October 28 (Tuesday).
