So often, it’s the people behind the scenes who keep things ticking, keep things in order and keep the ship afloat. Vandana and Raksha are two of the hardest working people in the Foundation and they sit upstairs where no one sees them unless they take the trouble to make the climb.
So today, I want to salute them for their devotion and care, for the patience they bring to the painstaking task of balancing our accounts and for the integrity of their work.
I particularly love the way they think of every rupee the Foundation has as their own – they spend with such care and they demand a full accounting of every pesae. They keep us focused and mindful of what really matters. They help us to remember why we are here.
I would like to join Jo in saluting them!
Last week when talking to Vandana about making candles at CVT and sell them to make profits, I felt really encouraged when she approved of the idea. The moment I said we need to spend initially about Rs.10000/-, she laughed it out and suggested if I could generate funds! I took it seriously and now hoping to get a part of it from some donor. Thats called real encouragement!
