Aage Badho Foundation

You can find us in Nangloi Extension 1, at House Number 30. If you are familiar with this part of West Delhi, we are pretty easy to spot. The name Aage Badho basically means keep moving forward, and that is what we try to do every single day here. We are not some huge organization with hundreds of staff members and a big budget. It is just a small group of us working out of this house. We noticed that a lot of folks in our neighborhood were feeling stuck or like they didn't have any opportunities, so we decided to set this foundation up to see if we could help out. We deal with whatever comes up. Sometimes it is helping someone learn a new skill so they can get a better job, and other times it is just helping them find the right information they need for a problem. This neighborhood can be a bit tough, and things do not always go the way we want them to. We have days where we feel like we aren't making any progress at all, but then someone will come in and tell us they finally got things sorted out. We keep our doors open for anyone around Nangloi who needs a bit of a hand. It is not a polished operation at all. We don't have fancy brochures or anything. We just sit and talk. Sometimes we just have some tea and listen to what is going on with people.
