Membership

Benefits

There are many benefits to becoming a member of the Gujarati Samaj of Minnesota. For example, the Samaj is a great way to preserve our culture and it is the best way to pass it on to our children. As a member, you can attend most events for free. In addition, you will get a Membership Directory listing all the contact information about other members. There is simply no better way to preserve our rich Gujarati heritage. Learn more about Samaj Membership Benefits. The membership form is located at the bottom of this page.

The membership rates depend on the type of membership:

	Individual One single person $45/full year; $40/after Diwali event

	Couple with Children For a married couple with unmarried, dependent children. $120/full year; $100/after Diwali event
	Family with Children & Parents For a married couple with dependend grandparents (max. 1 baa & 1 dada) and unmarried children. $150/full year; $125/after Diwali event

Note: Basic membership only gives discounted price at all GS sponsored events (price per event TBD): $20/full year; $15/after Diwali event.

The membership rates are for one year (from the Diwali function in November to the second Navratri the following year). Becoming a member is actually a much better deal than paying for individual events. View a comparison example to see how you can save.
