Arunoday Development Foundation

We spend most of our time here at 1A Nirmal Nagari. It’s a pretty easy place to find once you get onto Umred Road. We are in Building B1/2. If you are coming down the main road, you just look for the Shitla Mata Mandir because it is a big landmark for everyone around Nandanvan. Most people use the temple to tell others where to go. The area gets a bit busy during certain times of the day, but it’s mostly just a regular neighborhood. We have been working out of this spot for a bit. The office isn't anything fancy, just a place where we get things done. You can see the traffic moving along Umred Road if you look out at the right time. Nandanvan has its own rhythm. Sometimes the temple bells are going, and other times it’s just the sound of cars. We’ve got used to the stairs in B1/2 and the way the light hits the front of the building in the mornings. It’s where we keep all our paperwork and meet up to talk about what needs doing next. Neighbors stop by or just wave when they walk past. It feels like a part of the community here because we’ve been around the temple for so long. We don't really have a big sign or anything flashy, just the name Arunoday Development Foundation on the door so people know they found the right place among all the other buildings on the block.
