Respected members,
Greetings from Banchbo Parivar…
At the outset, we would like to convey our deep sense of gratitude for your good wishes and valued support and cooperation to the various activities of Banchbo. We are indeed overwhelmed and touched by your reliability, love and affection. On our part, we constantly endeavour to extend services of the highest standards and to the utmost satisfaction of our well wishers.
However, these are difficult times and in order to maintain and yet improve the standards of our services, the constraints that we have to face on various fronts on a daily basis are enormous and quite often extremely challenging. No doubt, your encouragement and good wishes are the most precious source of inspiration to all of us, which keep us going despite the odds.
You will surely however appreciate that for the viability of an organization like ours, the financial position needs to be stable, strong and sustainable, without the rates being too aggressive. The rates for the various services and facilities offered by us are quite competitive compared to other organisations. But we never have and never will compromise on the quality of our services. Even in the pandemic crisis period also we never backed down from our commitment. For which we have also received appreciation and praise from many print and electronic medias including national media NDTV. Hence we don’t need any paid promotion, rather you all are our credentials of our most reliable, most trusted, most tested, most affordable and most recognized pioneering *Eastern India’s First 24 × 7 Home based Elders care support since the year 2007* . However, to sustain and improve the extent and quality of our services, the rates need to be matched with the various costs, most of which unfortunately keep on increasing in tandem with the increase in general price level.
It is in this background that we are compelled to revise rates of our various membership categories after 2 years (last time in 2020) as detailed in the following, w.e.f 1st January, 2022 with some value added modification in our services as mentioned below. We know we may lose few members for this reason, but we are really helpless. We are sure the majority of our members will definitely realized our situation and appreciate our compulsions and constraints.
You will be happy to know that the profits from this social entrepreneurship project are used for various charitable purposes, including our school at Sundarban and Skill training for marginalized youth of Jungle Mahal and Sundarban.
