Aparaajita Social Welfare Foundation

You can find us at 149-A in Phase Lane 6 over in Panditwarhi. It’s tucked away in Bhorhgawn, which is a part of Dehradun that feels like its own little world sometimes. We’ve been operating the Aparaajita Social Welfare Foundation from here for a bit. It’s a residential area mostly, so you have to look for the right lane. Lane 6 is where we spend most of our time. It’s not a big corporate building, just a place where we gather to get work done. We wanted to stay close to where people actually live. Dehradun 248001 is a busy place, but Panditwarhi has a slower pace that suits us. There are always kids playing in the street and people walking to the local shops. We don't really do the whole formal office thing with desks and receptionists. Usually, someone is just sitting around a table with some tea, talking about what needs to happen next. It’s been a learning process for all of us here. We aren't experts in everything, but we know the people in this neighborhood well. Sometimes the mail gets mixed up because the lanes are a bit confusing, but we usually sort it out. We’re just trying to be a part of the community and do what we can from our spot in Lane 6. It’s a simple life and a simple way of working without any big corporate talk or polished presentations.
