Samanvay Group

Beginning in 2008, the Samanvay Group started looking for ways to increase youth activities in New Jersey and its surrounding areas. The word “samanvay” is derived from the Sanskrit language meaning a conjunction or connection of two or more ideas, principles, or objects. As a river flows into a lake, it sheds its identity to become one with a larger body of water. Similarly, Samanvay Group brings youths of various identities into a group with the common goal of: “We Are One.” With this underlying principle, more youths are enabled to reach higher in life through new connections, community engagements, and professional development.
