The UMass Hindu YUVA Executive Board has exciting future plans for the year ahead! This is the first year that we are raising funds through the Minute Fund and we hope that this will help us achieve great things this year!
We are currently gearing up to plan Dandiya Night in preparation for Garba on October 15 and our annual Diwali Puja on November 9th. In addition, we finished celebrating Ganesh Chaturthi on September 23rd, with students creating their own Ganesha from clay! These events foster community and provide a space for students to freely practice Hinduism.
Your support and donations would help us gather funds to create the best experience possible for all attendees. This includes catering for 200+ students, sound systems through external vendors, hiring photographers/videographers, arts and crafts, performances, along with other club expenses.
Our goal is to raise $5,000.
To reach our ambitious goal, your support is vital! We believe that if we rally together, we can better serve the Hindu community at UMass Amherst! To make events possible, ensure Hindu and Dharmic students feel at home at UMass, and to increase our advocacy power on campus it is vital to have the necessary funds.
Let us invest in Hindu students and Hindu life on college campuses. We're calling on students and our community to help us reach our monetary goal. Every dollar counts, and your donation will go a long way in ensuring that adequate support and a voice is given to Hindus on campus!
