Arvind Radheshyam Ganeriwal Charitable Foundation

Our foundation is located right in the middle of the chaos at Kalbadevi Road. If you know the area, you know how crowded it gets with all the shops and people moving goods. We are up in the Kakad Market building, specifically in units 402 and 403 on the 4th floor. The Arvind Radheshyam Ganeriwal Charitable Foundation has been here for some time now. It’s a bit of a climb if the elevator is acting up, which happens now and then. Inside, it’s mostly just office space where we handle the charity’s administrative stuff. We don't have fancy decorations or anything like that. It’s mostly just files and old desks. The noise from the market downstairs usually filters up, so it never really feels completely quiet. We like being in Kalbadevi because it feels like the real heart of the city's trade, and it’s very accessible for the people we deal with. We aren’t a big organization with hundreds of employees. It’s just a handful of us making sure the foundation’s work keeps going. We handle things one day at a time. It’s a practical place to work from. We’ve got tea stalls nearby that make the best chai, which helps us get through the busy afternoons when there’s a lot of paperwork to clear. It’s not glamorous, but it’s our home and it works for us.
