Betulsims Welfare And Research Foundation

Dr. Shyam Soni started this over at Chandrashekhar Ward in Betul. We are right there in the SDAR area, which is a busy part of town. This foundation is where we look into research and general welfare work for the people around here. It is mostly quiet work, digging through data or organizing local programs. We aren't a big corporation with shiny glass windows. The office is practical. We have a few computers and a lot of paper. Sometimes we have volunteers coming in to help with the latest project we are tracking. Betul is a nice place, and we like being part of the community here. It is hard to get research funded sometimes, but we manage. We aren't looking to be famous. We just want to do the research that actually matters to folks living in Madhya Pradesh. Dr. Soni is often busy, but the rest of us keep things moving day to day. We deal with a lot of different welfare issues, trying to see what works and what doesn't. Some days the tea is the best part of the morning. We just focus on the task at hand. It is a bit of a squeeze in the office when everyone shows up at once, but we make it work. Just a local group doing our bit in our corner of India. We don't have much for decor, just the basic necessities for the job.
