SECOND GENERAL BODY MEETING MINUTES
Dear Society Members,
Jai Jinendra & Pranam,
This is a follow-up to the General Body Meeting that was held on August 10th. Attached are the meeting minutes and the summary of the discussion.
The meeting continued the discussion on the potential purchase of the property at 28,000 Middlebelt Road. Members engaged in a thoughtful and constructive dialogue, expressing a range of views on the necessity and benefits of acquiring the new building. While the idea was explored in depth, with considerations given to annex, canopy, study class needs, long-term growth, and financial feasibility, many members felt that the current facilities are sufficient for the community's needs.
Concerns were raised about the financial implications, including the costs of renovation and maintenance, as well as the challenge of ensuring safe connectivity to the new property. Several members also inquired whether revitalizing the canopy project might be a more feasible and beneficial alternative to purchasing the new property.
Ultimately, the BOT decided to prioritize the community's immediate needs and the valuable input from members. After careful consideration, the decision was made to abandon the process of purchasing the property at 28,000 Middlebelt Road. This decision reflects the community's collective wisdom and commitment to making choices that best serve the long-term interests of the society.

Jai Jinendra,
The BOT

JSGD & JAIN ALERT GROUP TIFFIN SERVICE
Dear Society Members,
Jai Jinendra & Pranam,
Once again this year, JSGD & Jain Alert Group of Michigan is planning to provide tiffin service during 6 days of Paryushan! Due to logistical limitations, we will only be able to provide tiffins to students studying at UFM Ann Arbor. If you would like tiffin on any of the 6 days, please sign up on the form below.
A few guidelines to keep in mind:
1. We will be dropping tiffins off to a central location near you, not necessarily directly to you. This means that you might have to pick up your tiffin from somewhere other than your apartment.
2. If you fail to pick up your tiffin on any given day, we will cancel your tiffin for all remaining days. Leaving food overnight makes it vaasi and we cannot allow that especially during Paryushan.
3. If you feel you won't be able to pick up on a specific day even though you signed up, let us know latest by the night before.
4. If you have any other restrictions, please let us know and we will try to accommodate them.
5. By filling out this form, you are committing to being responsive to messages and questions. If you sign up but do not reply to our messages of confirmation, we will cancel your order.
Registration: https://forms.gle/eaAwENCZVskLaUtPA
Please spread this message to any Jain students you know who live in Ann Arbor!
For any questions, please reach out to:
Ankit Gupta - 989-909-3329

VOLUNTEERS FOR TIFFIN SERVICE
Dear Society Members,
Jai Jinendra & Pranam,
Once again, this year during Paryushan JSGD & Jain Alert group of Michigan will be delivering food to students studying at UFM Ann Arbor. We are looking for volunteers who can help to pack the food at temple and deliver the food to students at UFM.
Packaging of food may take about 1 hour depending on number of volunteers and total tiffins going out that day. Food packaging volunteers will need to be at temple by 11:00 am (approx.).
Delivery of food may take up to 2-3 hours depending on the number of stops and traffic. We will try to minimize the number of stops at the Ann Arbor campus. Food delivery volunteers need to be at temple by noon (approx.).
Please sign-up if you are able to provide your service to students during these auspicious days of Paryushan.
Volunteers Registration: https://forms.gle/FKz3nqTuHkqbMVieA
