Green Planet Welfare Foundation

You can find us over on Karnan Street in Kodambakkam. It is one of those spots in Chennai where the house numbers can get a bit confusing for people. We have the old number 21, but the new one is 13. If you are coming down the street, just look for that. Kodambakkam is always busy, so there is usually a lot of noise from the traffic nearby, but inside it stays fairly calm. This foundation is mostly about welfare and the planet, hence the name. We aren't a big corporate team or anything like that. It’s just a couple of us who care about the environment and how things are going in the city. The office is small and we’ve got a lot of files stacked up on the shelves. Sometimes we have tea together and talk about what needs to happen next. It is a bit cramped when more than four people show up at once. Being in a residential-ish area like this means we see the same faces every day. We don't spend money on fancy advertisements or anything. Most people find out about us just by walking past or through word of mouth. It is an honest place to work. We try to keep things simple and avoid all that technical talk that usually comes with these kinds of organizations. It is just about doing some good where we can and taking care of the small things first.
