Feedback on Internship by Ms. Karen De Looze from Brussels University

I first met Dr. Shroff of MOHAN Foundation in April 2009. I found my way to the office after having explored the entire MOHAN Foundation website that left a big impression on me. I was received with the best of hospitality, and together we looked at ways to cooperate.

Since I am a PhD researcher working for Brussels University working on the topic of brain death and cadaveric organ transfer in India, linking up with MOHAN Foundation just seemed like the right thing to do. Not just did it seem so, it was! The atmosphere at MOHAN Foundation is very gentle and light, notwithstanding the fact that the employees are performing one of the most difficult jobs with great enthusiasm investing all manpower with grace.

Although my field study also requires that I travel to Vrindavan and Varanasi, returning to the MOHAN Foundation office in Chennai regularly always feels like coming home. I feel like working with MOHAN Foundation is like being part of a family where the family ties are the service that is delivered to society at large. I could even enjoy a short visit to MOHAN Foundation in Hyderabad and felt that same bond, of people being united in a joint cause, triggered by loving feelings for the community.

I have been working with MOHAN Foundation ever since that day in April, and my field research will continue until February 2011. I am most certain that I will be sad to end my stay here in Chennai and in extension India, but then again, our cooperation to deliver service to humanity never will.
