what do I do?

Hi! friends this is Umesh from Mumbai, but working in Bangalore in an organization called The Akshaya Patra Foundation. I completed my 1st year in the foundation on 15th March 2011. I am very glad to tell you about the organization. It is a fact, friends, that this organization is doing great work by feeding mid-day meals to 1.2 million children every day, in 8 states and 18 locations. I am working in the head office in Bangalore which is located at Rajajinagar 1st Block. I take care of the Info desk of Akshaya Patra Foundation where I handle donations and interact with donors. I also help organize events at Akshaya Patra. We conduct many events at Akshaya Patra like Blogger meets, SMS India 2011 (Search Marketing Summit 2011, India). While working in this organization I have received good recognition and encouragement, which I did not get from other companies. I am very happy to be a part of Akshaya Patra. I will continue my career with the same work that I do here by helping feed children.
