Milja Foundation

Our place is in Shanti Nagar, specifically over at House 1726. We are on the second floor of a building in Gali number 125. It’s quite a way deep into the neighborhood. Shanti Nagar is one of those places where everyone knows everyone’s business. If you’re looking for us, look for plot 143. The stairs are narrow and a bit steep, so you have to be careful when you're coming up. It gets pretty hot in Delhi-110035 during the summer months, and our fans are always running at full speed. We have a couple of desks and some old filing cabinets that we got second-hand. It’s not a big fancy office, just a practical space where we get our work done. Sometimes the neighbors’ kids play in the street outside and you can hear them laughing and shouting all day long. We don’t mind it much. It makes the place feel alive. We have a small kettle for making tea when we get tired. Life here in Delhi is fast, but inside our little room on the second floor, things feel a bit more manageable. We just handle things as they come. There’s no big secret to how we operate. We just show up at the Shanti Nagar office every morning and do what needs doing until the sun goes down. There is always a lot of dust in the air here, so we wipe down the tables every few hours.
