Dishamitra Development Federation

The federation is based out of H No 21 in Katahari Belawan. It is a quiet place, far removed from the big city rush. We mostly work on local development projects that affect the families living nearby. The house is where we keep all our files and where we sit down to plan out the next steps for the community. We don't have a staff of professionals in suits. It’s mostly just neighbors and local residents who want to help out. The rooms are filled with basic wooden furniture and lots of ledgers. We don't use much fancy technology, mostly just a couple of old computers and our phones. Since we are in a smaller area like Katahari Belawan, everyone knows where House Number 21 is. We get people stopping by at all hours, sometimes just to ask a quick question about a project or to offer a bit of help. We don't have a big budget for advertising, so we just talk to people when we see them at the market or on the street. It’s a very slow and steady kind of work. We focus on things like local infrastructure and helping people get access to what they need. There is no corporate mission statement hanging on the wall. We just do the work that needs doing every day and try to keep things moving forward for the village.
