In the spirit of the holiday season, JYOC is excited to host a clothing drive for all Pathshala students. On November 20th and December 4th, we will be visiting Pathshala classes to pick up any donated clothes and provide it to Planet Aid.
What is Planet Aid? Planet Aid is an organization dedicated to helping the environment and people all around the world. With the clothes donated, they send them to developing countries where clothing is needed, and/or the clothes are recycled for use elsewhere.
We highly encourage you to donate clothing items that you may not use. All clothing items (even with minor stains or tears) are accepted, however, please do not donate dirty, moldy, wet, or tattered beyond repair clothes.
The class with the most clothing items donated will receive a prize! When you bring your bag with clothes, please label it with the number of clothing items and the pathshala class.

Help JSMW - You shop, Amazon gives!
We are in the process of building a brand new temple over the next few years. We will need all the funding we can get to support the construction costs and make this project a grand success.
If you like to shop on Amazon, JSMW has registered with AmazonSmile where 0.5% of your shopping expenses get donated to the JSMW temple fund! This is a great way to support the new temple effort.
Every little bit will make a big difference as we progress towards temple construction. Thank you for the support!!
