Ngo Sangath

Ngo Sangath is based in Goa, at Hno 34 1 in Alrem Raia, Salcete. It’s a much different pace of life down here compared to the big cities like Delhi or Mumbai. Our office is essentially a house, which makes the whole environment feel a lot more relaxed and friendly than a typical workspace. We aren't a big, cold institution with layers of management. We are just a group of people working together in Salcete. The area around Raia is quite green and peaceful, which we really appreciate during the workday. We spend our time at the house getting through our daily lists and talking to the people who come by to see us. It’s a local operation through and through. We don't really do the whole corporate thing at all. There are no suits or formal boardrooms in this house. We just sit around, maybe have some tea, and get to the work that needs our attention. Being in Goa means we have to deal with the heavy monsoon rains and the summer heat, but it’s all part of the deal of living here. We like the community in Alrem. Everyone seems to know everyone else, and that's how we like to run Ngo Sangath too. We try to be approachable and down-to-earth with everyone. There’s no need to make things more complicated than they actually are. We just do our best and keep moving forward. It’s a quiet life, but we stay busy enough.
