La Pura Vida Foundation

We’re located in the Arunachal Building on Barakhamba Road, up on the ninth floor in room 908. It’s right in the middle of everything in New Delhi. The building is quite old and has a lot of character. We’ve been here for a bit now. The view from the window is mostly other buildings and the street down below. Our office is just a regular room with some desks and a couple of filing cabinets. It’s not very big, so we have to stay organized. We don’t have any fancy carpets or expensive paintings. It’s just a place where we can sit and get our work done. The elevators in the building can be a bit slow sometimes, especially during the lunch hour. We spend a lot of our time on the phone or working on the computer. It’s a busy environment but we’ve gotten used to the pace. We aren't trying to be a big, polished organization. We’re just a group of people who wanted to set something up and this was the place we found. It works for us. Most of the people who come by are just here for meetings or to drop off papers. We keep things pretty informal. There’s no dress code or anything like that. We just focus on getting through the day’s tasks and making sure everything is filed correctly before we leave.
