Srishti Social Welfare Foundation

Srishti Social Welfare Foundation is located at Gaya Prasad’s place in the village of Kothuasaranpurtola-Nawalpur. We’re part of the Kathua Sarangpur panchayat. It’s a rural area, so things move a bit slower here than in the cities. Our foundation is just a small group of us working out of a simple room. We don't have any fancy office furniture or big computers. Most of what we do is done with pen and paper. We started this because we wanted to help our neighbors with their daily struggles. Whether it’s help with farming issues or getting some paperwork done for the government, we try to be there. We aren't a big corporate foundation with a lot of rules. We just talk to people like we always have. Sometimes the heat in the afternoon makes it hard to focus, but we stay at our desks. We don’t have any marketing materials or anyone to talk us up. People just know where we are and what we do. The road to get here can be a bit rough after it rains, so some days we don't have many visitors. We use those times to organize our records, which always seem to be a bit of a mess. We aren't trying to be anything special. We’re just local people trying to make things a little better for the folks in Kothuasaranpurtola. It’s honest, simple work that we enjoy and take day by day.
