Introduction:
Why Jain Milan 2008?
As the next generation of Jain Americans begins to assimilate into Western
culture, it becomes increasingly challenging to meet those that hold similar beliefs
and religious values. Though websites and e-mail communication help to a certain
extent, nothing comes close to meeting potential suitors in person. We have witnessed
many Indian organizations holding successful events to provide an opportunity for
young adults to have a face-to-face meeting. We felt now it was time to create a
forum for the Jain youth.
What is Jain Milan 2008?
Jain Milan 2008 is an opportunity for Jain youth (age 21 and older) throughout
North America and around the world to meet in person, to make friends, to engage
in networking, to develop business contacts and to possibly find a life partner.
Jain Milan 2008 is organized to encourage our Jain youth to meet other Jains for
the purpose of matrimony and to facilitate a face-to-face meeting. Jain Milan believes
in Jain family values and will work hard to preserve these values. With events like
Jain Milan 2008, we hope to achieve our goal to preserve Jain traditions and values
in our next generation and strengthen our community.
