CORD (Chinmaya Organization for Rural Development) USA is the secular service wing of Chinmaya Mission. This year, the organization formed a group of high school students from various Chinmaya centers to participate in a service trip in Sidhbari, India. CORD was first founded in Sidhbari by Dr. Kshama Metre and has since expanded to various centers in India. The organization stresses the importance of self-empowerment for the villagers and we hope to make a difference by spending two weeks in India. The dates of this service trip are from June 20, 2011 to July 4, 2011. The following people are members of the trip:
Sonali Nayak-Los Angeles,CA
Rusheel Nayak-Los Angeles,CA
Krishna Narra-Houston, TX
Meera Parat-San Jose, CA
Gowthamram Rajaprabhakaran-West Palm Beach, FL
Parent escorts: Mithra Nayak- Los Angeles, CA
