Qisra Charitable Education Foundation

We are located at 44-34/189 in Shahapur, right near the new bus stand in the Deshmukh Layout. It’s a busy area since the buses are always coming and going. You can hear the horns and the people shouting throughout the day. Gulbarga can get really hot, so we usually have the fans running full blast in the office. It’s a simple building, nothing too modern. We have a few desks where we sit and talk to the families who come in. Most of our work involves sitting down with people and going over details. We don't have a big marketing budget or a fancy website. People usually find us because they heard about us from a neighbor or saw the sign near the bus stand. The office is often full of people waiting their turn, so it can get a bit crowded and loud. We just do our best to talk to everyone who shows up. The floors are plain tile and the walls could probably use a new coat of paint, but it doesn't really matter for the work we do. We’ve been in this part of Shahapur for a while, so we know the local rhythms. When the power goes out, we just open the doors and keep talking. It’s an honest way to spend the day, even if it’s tiring. We aren't trying to be anything we’re not, just a local foundation doing what we can with what we have. Sometimes we eat lunch together.
