Hare Krishna Cares Foundation

Our place is H.No.36, right opposite the police station in Bahadrabad. It’s a landmark that most people in the neighborhood know well. Having the police station right there makes it easy to give directions, though it can get a bit noisy with the sirens and traffic. Hare Krishna Cares Foundation is just a small operation run by a few of us who live nearby. We wanted to have a spot where people could come if they were going through a rough patch. We don’t have any fancy mission statements or corporate goals. We just look at what’s happening on our street and try to help. Sometimes that means providing a meal, other times it’s just listening to someone’s troubles. The house itself is old but it serves us well. We’ve got a couple of rooms set up for our work. It’s not very organized some days, with papers everywhere and people coming and going at all hours. Bahadrabad is a busy spot, and there’s always someone who needs something. We try to be there as much as we can. It’s not always easy, and we definitely make mistakes, but we’re learning as we go. We aren’t experts, just people who care about our town and the people in it. If you’re ever passing the police station, you’ll probably see us out front or hanging around the doorstep chatting with someone.
