To,
The Chairman
People First Educational Charitable Trust Bodhgaya
Subject – Regarding my Resignation
Sir,
With respect I have to say that I am Sahdeo Kumar, S/O Late Chtradhari Yadav.
I came to this organisation about 16 years before and with your help and support I have finished my studies and also I got the chance to work for this organisation and I have fulfilled my responsibilities with care and joy.
But now from today on 12th January 2008, I must leave People First, as I am to join the Bihar Military police.
Therefore I request you to please kindly accept my resignation, but I will never forget your help and support in my life, because due to your support I got the only chance I could ever have to improve my life beyond all my hopes and dreams.
Whatever I have achieved the credit goes to you all, and once again I really thank you all, and I and my wife and son, and all my family will always be obliged to you for the rest of my life.
Yours faithfully
Sahdeo Kumar
Christopher Titmuss, one of the most senior teachers of the Dharma who visits Bodhgaya every year and holds a retreat at the Thai Monastery visited Rescue Junction recently.
Christopher has been extremely generous of spirit in allowing People First to talk about our work to the retreat every year, and these talks have been the source of much support over the years.
Dominika also from the retreat visited along with Rick, one of the founding members of Pragna Vihar School in Bodhgaya and Deborah, a student on a gap year from Switzerland.
They were all most welcome.
Here are some more photographs from the Chairpersons and Co- founders recent trips to the UK and the USA. More photographs can be found on the "fund raising page"
