Ruhi International Foundation

Our office is in Flat-208 of the Sadar Complex, which is located in Sadar Bazar, Fatehgunj. This is right in the heart of Vadodara, Gujarat. If you know the Sadar Bazar area, you know it’s a very active place with lots of shops and people moving around. Being in a flat means it feels a bit more like a home than a stiff office, which we like. We’ve got our computers set up in the main room and we use the other space for storage and files. The Sadar Complex is an older building, so it has that lived-in feel to it. Sometimes the stairs are a bit much if the lift isn't working right, but we manage. We are at 390002, and being in Fatehgunj makes it easy for us to get to different parts of Vadodara when we need to. We spend most of our time here just working through the daily administration for the foundation. It can get a bit loud with the sounds of the bazaar coming up from the street, but you get used to it after a few weeks. It’s a very local atmosphere. We don't have any fancy receptionists or glossy brochures lying around. It’s just a plain room where we do the work that needs doing. It’s honest work and this flat is a good enough place to do it. We usually keep the fans running all day to stay cool.
