He wanted to host a house warming party, but did not have large enough pots\/pans to cook the food. In August 1974, the six founding fathers started the Samaj by contributing $5.00 each for membership (remember that at the time, minimum wage was $1.80). Starting with about 12 members initially, the organization quickly grew as more Gujarati’s moved to Windsor.<\/p>\n

With Navaratri right around the corner, Late Shri Jayanti Coty Patel offered his basement and hence, Windsor\u2019s first garba took place at his home.<\/p>\n

GSW\u2019s first Diwali celebration came together with great enthusiasm as all the families of the Samaj volunteered to put on a fantastic event complete with food and entertainment.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.0.11″ animation_style=”slide”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.0.11″ text_font=”||||||||” header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”Rubik|700|||||||” header_2_font_size=”42px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” text_orientation=”center” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”||-3px|||” custom_padding=”|||” header_2_font_size_tablet=”” header_2_font_size_phone=”36px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” locked=”off”]<\/p>\n

Gujarati Samaj of Windsor, our non profit organization was incorporated in 1974, by few Gujarati families and over the years with the hard work of all the past presidents, committee members and our volunteers next year in 2024- 25 will mark its incorporation for the 50th year. I am very happy and excited to serve the Samaj as a president. Ever since its incorporation our Samaj have evolved from modest community to thriving force that we see today. We are proud to surpass the numbers of the new members joining the Samaj as it has grown exponentially. <\/p>\n
