Diaspora Leaders Foundation

Our office is at Number 249 A on Ambujammal Street, right off the main TTK Road in Alwarpet. It is a busy area of Chennai, so there is always a lot of traffic and people moving around outside our windows. Finding the place can be a bit tricky for the first time because you have to turn off the main road, but once you see the building, it makes sense. We are right in the middle of everything here. The staff mostly comes in early to avoid the worst of the heat and the congestion on the streets. We have a small space where we keep all our files and a few computers for the daily work. It is not a very formal environment. We drink a lot of tea and talk about the things that need to get done for the day. Being in Alwarpet means we are close to a lot of other offices and shops, so there is always something happening nearby. The foundation has been at this address for some time now and we've grown used to the sounds of the city. We don't spend money on fancy decorations or expensive marketing materials. We just focus on the people who come to see us and the tasks we have on our list. It is a practical way to run things, and it keeps us grounded in the local neighborhood where people know us.
