Prajolit Jankalyan Foundation

Prajolit Jankalyan Foundation is based in Jalalpur, Bhadohi. If you are looking for us, we are at the house of Matadan Singh. The pin code here is 221401. Bhadohi is famous for its carpets, but we are more focused on general public welfare, which is what jankalyan means. Our office is essentially a part of a local residence. It’s very informal. You might hear kids playing outside or see neighbors stopping by for a chat while we are working. We deal with all sorts of local issues. It could be helping someone get their ID cards or organizing a small gathering to talk about health. We don't have a fancy board of directors or anything like that. It’s just Matadan Singh and a few of us who want to help the village. Things move a bit slower here than in the big cities like Noida or Lucknow, but we like it that way. We know the families in Jalalpur and they know us. We don't have a big budget for advertising, so most people hear about us through word of mouth. It’s just about being a good neighbor and helping out when things get tough for someone. We keep our records in a few ledgers and do our best to stay organized. It’s honest, local work for the people right here in our own community. That is all there is to it.
