Countrified Foundation

The Countrified Foundation is based out of Baitalpur, specifically in Banaspar Buzurg. We operate from Rajivmani Trapthi’s place, which serves as our main hub here in Deoria. It is a local setup, very much rooted in the community where we live. You won't find any glass buildings or reception desks here. Most of the time, we are just sitting in the front room discussing the latest projects or catching up on paperwork. People in the village know where to find us if they need anything. Being in this part of Uttar Pradesh means we are close to the people we work with every day. Sometimes the power goes out, and we just have to wait it out or move outside to get some light. It’s not a perfect office, but it’s ours. We spend a lot of time traveling around Deoria, so the office is often empty for a few hours in the afternoon. When we are here, there is usually tea on the stove and plenty of talk about the local harvest or community news. We don't have a big marketing budget or a fancy website. We just focus on the tasks at hand and try to stay organized despite the usual chaos of a busy household. It’s a very hands-on way of doing things, and that’s how we prefer it. The address might seem long on paper, but for us, it's just home.
