Raising Awareness about Jagriti International:
In April 2002 Indira Jena and Uma Maheehwan from Nirnaya in Secunderbad, India, visited Santa Barbara. They were the featured speakers before 40 people at a luncheon hosted by Patti Friedel, a member of Jagriti International advisory board. As part of their moving presentation, they showed a beautiful 10 minute film depicting their work in India training women and helping them to create village women's groups. Oakland In August 2002 Jagriti International volunteers and former work-study students Kate Freeman, Sarah Harding and Jessica Osier joined Carolyn Vallerga to organize a Jagriti International event in Oakland, California. 30 people learned about the work of the Foundation from Dr. Michele Andina and watched a film of the Founding Friends 1998 Awakening Journey to Nepal.
