A genuine supporter of the cause





It was a weak before independence day, that Bapu told me that his friend Mr.Nayak is coming to Sandnya Srushti along with his nephew Mr. Jeetendra Nayak who is a businessman in Nagpur. On due date they did come.I found them quite sensitive to our cause of mental disability. In fact during our two hour meeting, I realized that Mr.Jeetendra is quite resourceful. He promised me that he will help us in all possible ways. It was Wednesday, power shut down for the whole day. He said, I think you need generator urgently. As I said, yes we need it but it is not a priority. He commented that, it is priority for me since I am likely to here very often and would not like to sit here without fan. I thought it was in a lighter sense. But while parting he said, I shall send some expert to asses your power requirement for a generator and they left the campus.

Very next day, a expert person in the field of power generation visited our campus and duly assesd our power need and reported back to Jeetendra. Today, Jeetendra again visited our Sandnya Srushti campus along with one of his friends Mr. Kamath who is chartered account by profession and a Rotarian. Mr. Kamath promised to look in to our requirement of a special bus with wheel chairs. He said he will promote this through Rotary Club.
Mr.Jeetendra, told me that he is already working on arranging a generator and he will get me one soon. He had called a marketing man from Johnson Elevators and told him about the requirement of a elevator. These people were with me for about two hours. Mr.Jeetendra told me that he will find a sponsor for elevator also. I took them around the new construction site as well. To me Mr.Jeetendra seems to be a genuine supporter of the cause of mentally challenged. He is throughly impressed with our work and work culture as well. Let us see what happens next.
