Bodhivraksha Foundation

If you look for 11D/26A in Sati Nagar, you’ll find us. This is Naraich, which is part of the Etamadpur tehsil. It is a bit of a trek from the main city centers, but we like the quiet here. Bodhivraksha Foundation is what we call ourselves. The office is basically just a room with some old furniture we’ve had for years. There’s a big tree nearby that gives some shade during the hot afternoons. We spend a lot of time sitting there talking about what to do next. The roads around here aren’t the best, especially when it rains and everything turns to mud. We’ve had to cancel a few meetings because of that before. Most of our neighbors are families who have lived here forever. They know us and sometimes drop in for a chat. We don’t have any fancy brochures or a marketing team. It’s mostly just us writing things down in notebooks. We do a lot of walking around the local area to see how folks are doing. Sometimes we have to head into Etamadpur for supplies or to deal with government papers. It takes a while because the buses are slow. We don’t mind, though. It’s just how things are in this part of the world. We’re just local people doing local work without making a big fuss about it.
