JSMW Helping Hands
Jai Jinendra,
In spirit of Jain principles and random acts of kindness, JSMW is lauching a new intiative called JSMW Helping Hands.
JSMW Helping Hands will try to match a community member needing help, with community member who can help.
Some examples for JSMW Helping Hands acts of kindness:
- Rides: Seniors may need rides to come to the Derasar or to another JSMW event
- Can you give a hand by offering a ride?
- Time: A family member may be sick or disabled for a prolonged time
- Can you give a hand by relieving the family for a short time and give some company?
- Can you give a hand by helping run a few errands?
- Skill: A member may need some basic 101 knowledge on technology or even school work?
- Can you give a hand by offering computer lessons or basic internet usage?
- Can you give a hand with car repairs, cell phones updates, even tutoring, etc.?
Here is how JSMW Helping Hands will work:
- For Person In Need of Help/Hand: Members who need help please call 301-578-6454..
- When you need a helping hand, please call the phone # and one of committee members from JSMW's Act of Kindness will get the details
- For Person Who Can Give Help/Hand: We will have a WHATSAPP group for those members willing to give a hand.
- All helping hand requests will be posted on the WHATSAPP group. If a volunteer is able to meet that request, the committee member will pass the volunteers information to the person in need.
Please note, all helping-hand requests may not be honored. Everybody will be required to be respectful and mindful of privacy.
Interested in lending a hand? Please reach
helpinghands@jainsocietydc.org
