Vidarbha Wasi Pune Niwasi Foundation

We set up Vidarbha Wasi Pune Niwasi Foundation over in the Narhe area, which is near the Nawale bridge. Our office is on the second floor of Vishwa Arcade, in office number 204. It's a very busy spot because of the highway traffic and all the small shops nearby. We started this because there are many people from the Vidarbha region living here in Pune now. We wanted a place where we could gather and talk about things that matter to us. The office is nothing special, just a few rooms where we keep our files and have some chairs for people to sit. We spend our time organizing small events or just helping people get settled when they first move to the city. Sometimes it is very hard to find any parking near Vishwa Arcade, but we make it work. We're not a big corporation with fancy titles or high salaries. We are just regular people from Vidarbha who now call Pune our home. We don't have a mission statement or anything like that hanging on the wall. We just try to be helpful when someone comes in through the door. The work is mostly talking to people and keeping some records of who needs what help. It gets a bit loud with the traffic noise from the bridge, but you get used to it after a while. We like being in Narhe. It's a growing area and it feels like there is always something going on around the building.
