FULL TEXT:

Hi, I'm Burton Li, the founder and CEO of Sutro Li. Sutro Li provides accounting capacity to community based nonprofits using cloud tools. Cloud applications opened our doors for hiring internationally. My wife Trupti and I founded a branch of Sutro Li located in Pune, India.

Sutro Li India is now well known by local universities. As one of the best growth opportunities for new graduates. We operate continuing education courses every month and we really emphasize the importance of learning as fundamental in our culture. Sutro Li India has been a fantastic journey and we've learned a lot about differences between cultures but more about common ground.

We all want to learn. We all want to be challenged, and we all want to be part of something greater than ourselves. We've also faced common challenges together like climate change and pandemics - and all of this has really helped us to understand we're all in this together. We need to collaborate across borders more, not less. This funding would be invested in hiring the best trainers for our Gurukul training and development program, to provide the best learning opportunities and build a learning culture.

This will support our long term mission which is to be the absolute best accounting support for change makers and visionaries working on global challenges. Thank you.
