Vitthal Rukmini Social Foundation

Vitthal Rukmini Social Foundation is located in the Goregaon East area of Mumbai. We are at the Ashok Pandurang Patil chawl in Sarvodaya Nagar. Our place is quite close to the Arey Check Naka, which is a very busy spot with a lot of traffic and people. Because we are in a chawl, our space is quite small and simple. It is just one main room where we do everything. We don't have any air conditioning or fancy office equipment. We just have a few chairs and a table where we keep our registers. People from the neighborhood are always coming and going, so it stays pretty active. We have lived and worked in this part of Mumbai for a long time. We know the struggles that people face here every day. Our foundation isn't run by corporate experts. It is just a few of us who grew up here and wanted to help out. We don't have a big website or a lot of polished materials. We just talk to our neighbors and try to be useful. Sometimes we sit outside on the steps when it gets too crowded inside. It is a very humble way of working, but it is the only way we know. We don't make big promises. We just do what we can with the little we have.
