Small Hands Life Foundation

We operate out of Vill-Chithera in Dadri. You have to look for Manish Vats’ place to find us. It’s right there in the heart of the village. Being in Gautam Buddha Nagar, especially around Noida, things are changing fast, but Chithera still feels like a proper village. Small Hands Life Foundation is just a small group of us trying to do something decent. We don't have a big sign or a fancy entrance. We just use the space we have. Most of the time, we are out talking to families or checking on things in the local area. The pincode is 203207, which helps the mail get here, though it takes its time. We aren't corporate people. We wear regular clothes and speak like everyone else here. There’s a lot of dust from the roads nearby, and the summers get really hot, but we stay busy. We didn't want to be in a high-rise in Noida. We wanted to be where the people actually live. It’s more practical this way. We deal with real issues, not just things on a screen. Manish helps keep things grounded. We don't have a lot of money for big events, so we just do small things that matter. It’s honest work. Sometimes it’s frustrating, but mostly we just get on with it. That’s how we do things in Chithera. We’ve been here a while and don't plan on leaving.
