Rmss Welfare Foundation

Rmss Welfare Foundation is basically run out of a house in Shivaji Puram, over in Indira Nagar. It’s house number 638/004/41A, so it’s right in the middle of where people live in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. We didn't want a big office downtown because this is where we actually know people. Most mornings start with someone bringing in tea and sitting on the porch to talk about what’s happening. It’s a bit cramped inside with all the files and folders everywhere, but we make it work. We’ve got a couple of old chairs that have seen better days and a computer that’s a little slow. We do a lot of walking around the neighborhood just checking in on folks. It isn’t some big polished organization with a board of directors in suits. It’s just a few of us who grew up around here and wanted to stay involved. Sometimes the neighbors pop in just to say hello or ask a question, and that’s fine by us. We don't have a big sign outside, just the address and our work. It gets loud when the traffic picks up nearby, but inside we’re just focusing on the tasks at hand. It's simple work, really. We just try to help out where we can without overcomplicating things or pretending to be something we aren't. It's just what we do every day to keep things moving along and helping out our neighbors.
