Balarjun Foundation

Balarjun Foundation is situated in Jharsa, specifically in Balmiki Mohalla at Chopra Patti, House Number 18. It is a very old part of Gurgaon and has a lot of history behind it. Living and working here means you are always in the middle of everything. The houses are close together and you can hear the sounds of the neighborhood all day long. Our office is just a room in the house where we keep our records and meet people who need help. It isn't anything special to look at, just some chairs and a wooden desk that has seen better days. We do the work ourselves without any help from outside agencies or professional consultants. People in Chopra Patti are helpful, so if we need something moved or fixed, someone is always around to lend a hand. We don't use a lot of fancy words to describe what we do. We just saw some things that needed attention in our community and started this foundation. It’s been a slow process getting everything organized, but we are getting there bit by bit. The fans hum all day to keep the heat away while we work. We drink a lot of water and just focus on the task at hand. It’s a bit messy sometimes, with papers everywhere, but we know where everything is. This is just our local way of doing things.
