This task is a lot easier as I continue on a strong foundation laid by my predecessors Mr. Indubhai Solanki, Mr. Satishbhai Shah, Mr. Vinodbhai Patel, and Mr. Pravinbhai Patel. I wish to thank them as well as my peers on the board for their trust in me.

My heartfelt thanks to all our sponsors, some who remain anonymous, for their generosity in supporting our Navarari Program and Annual Directory. We would not enjoy such a glorious celebration without their support.

During my term, with the support of our executive committee, I would like to implement certain procedural and programmatic changes to break the “same old“ concept . Towards this effort we were able to have a very successful inaugural bus trip to Vraj Mandir dedicated to our senior members. We shall continue with Natak, Picnic, Navaratri and Diwali functions and I ask everyone to support these events with their presence.

This year we are introducing a “Youth Wing“ in our samaj. I encourage our young generation to be proactive and step up to the challenge. This is a chance to show off your many faceted talents. Show us your spirit and surprise us with your enthusiasm !!

One of my fondest hopes is to have a community centre we can call our own. This goal is attainable if we take little steps at a time. I ask everyone to come up with at least one idea to help us achieve this goal.

With your help and our committees dedication we will have a very successful future for GUJARATI SAMAJ OF DELAWARE.
 

Jai Shree Krishna,
Bhavesh Patel
President, Gujarati Samaj of Delaware
