Jai Jinendra, Some of you may be aware of the Jain Youth Exchange Program (JYEP) sponsored by JITO, JAINA and BJS. Under JYEP, a group of Jain youth visits various places in the USA hosted by the local Jain centers and learn about Jains in the USA. This year, for the first time, the group includes Boston in it itinerary. In fact, the first stop is in Boston. Yogendra Jain and I have been working on the arrangements for this group's visit. This year's group of 12 youth - 6 male and 6 females, ages 21 to 24. Ten are from India, one from Nepal and one from Dubai. Their visit to Boston commences on Friday, June 23 and they depart on Tuesday, June 27. Following is the visit schedule in brief:

  • Friday June 23, Arrive at Boston Logan via Emirates at 2:00 p.m.
  • Saturday, June 24, All Day - Jain Center Pratishtha Anniversary program.
  • Sunday, June 25, Morning - Boston Historical Tour. Afternoon - Attend Arangetram in Nashua, NH

The purpose of this email is to seek your volunteer help in supporting this program. Please let me know if you are able to

1. Host the students (we have one family confirmed, need at least one more)
2. Pickup/Drop-off from airport and bus terminus
3. Tour guide
4. Drive the 15 seat van we are renting

Please offer suggestions on other activities and how you can help.
