Aasiyn Foundation

Our foundation, Aasiyn Foundation, is based in Vasundhara Enclave at Paryatan Vihar. We are in Flat No. 395 on the first floor of B-8. It’s a fairly quiet neighborhood, which is nice for getting work done. We’re a small group, just a few of us who wanted to do something more than just talk about problems. The office is really just a converted living room. We have our files and a couple of computers, and that’s about it. We don't have a big budget, so we have to be careful with how we spend every rupee. Most of our work is about helping people in the local community who have fallen on hard times. We don't have a flashy website or anyone to do our marketing. We just do the work and hope it helps someone. Sometimes it feels like we aren't doing enough, but then we look at the small changes we’ve helped make and it feels okay. We aren't trying to impress anyone with big words or corporate talk. We’re just residents of East Delhi who care about our neighbors. It’s often messy and we are always learning as we go. If you’re in B-8, you might see us coming and going with boxes or papers. It’s just simple, local stuff that we feel is important to keep doing for the folks living around us.
