Shiv Hari Uttrakhand Foundation

We started Shiv Hari Uttrakhand Foundation right here in Satpuli. It is mostly just us working out of Nathi Singh’s place. If you know the village, you know it is a quiet spot. There is not always a lot going on, so we figured we should do something useful for the folks living around here. It isn't some big operation with fancy offices. We just sit together and talk about what needs doing in the village. Sometimes it is about help with the farms or just looking out for the older people who live on their own. Life in the hills is hard enough as it is. We do not have a lot of money or a big team, but we do what we can. It is mostly just neighbors helping neighbors. We do not have a website or anything like that, just this little space in Satpuli. People stop by when they need something or if they have an idea. It gets cold here in the winters and things slow down quite a bit. But we stay open. It is important to have a place where someone is actually listening. We do not make big promises. We just try to be here. Nathi Singh lets us use the space, and that is plenty for now. We are not trying to change the whole world, just keep things going okay in our own little corner of Uttarakhand. It is a simple life and that is how we like it.
