Ihub Ntihac Foundation

Ihub Ntihac Foundation is based right inside the I.I.T. Kanpur Campus, specifically in the C3I Building in Kalyanpur. Being on a campus means there’s always students and teachers walking around. It’s a bit of a maze sometimes if you don’t know your way around the buildings. We share space with a lot of other activities. Our desks are usually covered in notes and old cables. It’s not the quietest place, but it has a good energy to it. We don't really do much in the way of public relations. We just focus on the projects we have at hand. Most of our day is spent looking at screens or talking in small groups. Sometimes the power goes out or the internet gets slow, and we just have to wait it out. It's part of being here. We don't have a lot of decorations on the walls, just a few calendars and some old posters. It’s a working office, not a showroom. People think because we are at I.I.T. that everything is high-tech and perfect, but we deal with broken chairs and leaky pens just like anyone else. We grab lunch from the local canteen when we have time. It’s a plain, functional life we have here in the C3I Building. We just keep doing our thing and hope it makes some sense at the end of the month.
