Van Development Foundation

We are based in Barnihar, out in the Manwa Parsi area. If you are looking for us, we are at Vaibhav Kumar Priyadarshi’s place. It’s a local village setting, so don’t expect a big office building. We basically work out of a home office. The air is a bit fresher out here than in the city, which we like. Van Development Foundation is just our way of staying active in the community. We spend a lot of time outdoors or just meeting people from the Tola. It’s a simple life. We don’t have a lot of rules or a strict dress code. Most days we are just in regular clothes, doing the paperwork or talking to the folks who live nearby. The roads get a little muddy when it rains, so that slows things down sometimes. We’ve been here for a bit now and people know where to find us. It’s not a complicated operation. We just do what we can with the resources we have. Sometimes we sit under the trees and talk about what needs to be done next. It’s very informal. We don't really do the whole corporate thing. It’s more about being part of the village and helping out where it makes sense. That’s pretty much the whole story of our little foundation. We just keep going one day at a time, seeing what comes our way.
