Suhrdam Foundation

Suhrdam Foundation is tucked away on the 3rd floor of building number 37 in Shanti Vihar. This is in East Delhi, 110092. Being on the third floor means a lot of stairs if the lift isn't working, which happens more often than we’d like. Our space is pretty simple. We have some basic desks, a few chairs, and a lot of papers scattered around. It’s definitely not a fancy corporate office with glass walls or a big lobby. We are just a small group of local people who wanted to do something in our own area. Most of us live within a few kilometers, so we avoid the worst of the Delhi traffic, which is a blessing. Shanti Vihar is a lively neighborhood, though finding a parking spot for visitors is always a bit of a nightmare. We don’t really do any big advertising or marketing stuff. Most people find us because they live nearby or heard about us from a neighbor. It’s usually quiet enough up here to get our work done without too much distraction. We don't have a rigid schedule; we just handle whatever issues come up during the day. Sometimes we stay late to finish something, and other times it’s a normal five o'clock finish. It feels real working here, rather than being in some sterile office building. We just do our bit and keep things moving as best as we can without making things complicated.
