  2. From the President’s desk: December marks completion of half the journey set to serve the club and community in full earnest. It has been very satisfying and self-fulfulling. We saw an active discussion in the 2nd Club Assembly. With the continous support of all the members, and with a dynamic team with positive attitude, we hope to forge ahead with renewed optimism. We started the month with Shri Manaklal Agarwal using signature reading to read minds of members. A very lively meeting. Renowned religious philosopher & Jain Guru PujyashriChitrabhanu gave us “SukhaurShantikeUpay”. Mrs. ChitraPalekar spoke on the sensitive topic “Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals, Transvestites (LGBT)” and highlighted the need to be sensitive to this community. We had the opportunity to co-host and join visit of RIP KalyanBanerjee to Jawahar where various clubs are carrying out projects. The District Christmas Eve-cum-New Year Party on 24-Dec-11 saw participation of 66 members from our club. Totally 250 members across 7 clubs enjoyed the non-stop entertainment including music, exotic dances, food, surprise gifts with high spirits. It gave high visibility to our club. Our club conducted two “Skin Donation Awareness Camps” at G.D.Somani Memorial School, Cuffe Parade and ManavMandir School, Walkeshwar. We co-hosted RYPEN to enrich children of Aryan School, Opera House on various musical instruments which they could experiment with. We also donated to “Friends of Tribal Society” to support a school for a year in tribal areas.
