Jaanavi Social Welfare Foundation

Jaanavi Social Welfare Foundation is located at #732 in the 6th Cross of Jnanbharthi Layout. This is out in Kengeri, so it is a bit of a trek if you are coming all the way from the center of Bangalore. The layout is relatively new compared to other parts of the city, and it has a lot more greenery and trees around the streets. Our office is a simple ground-floor unit. It gets a lot of bright light in the morning, which is nice for us. We have a small gate in front and a little bit of space where we park our bikes during the day. The 560059 area is mostly quiet, which helps us stay focused on the tasks we are doing. We have a few plastic chairs for any visitors and a large wooden desk where most of the planning happens. It is not a fancy setup, just some basic stuff we put together over time. Sometimes the power goes out in the afternoon, so we just sit and talk until the lights come back on. We do not have a big team, just a handful of us who live in this side of town. We usually bring our own lunch from home and eat together in the small back room. The vibe is very relaxed. We do not wear suits or anything formal. It is just us doing our work in a quiet corner of Karnataka.
