Shaskiya Swanirman Vishwayuva Sankalp Foundation

Our place is at House No 1128-F-695 in Nandanvan. If you know the Zopadpatti area, you know it's always humming with people. It’s a tight space, but we make it work. We’ve been set up here for a bit now, and everyone in the lane knows us. It’s not one of those glass buildings you see in the city center. It’s a real house where real things happen. Sometimes the neighbors’ kids are playing right outside the door while we are trying to sort out our papers. We mostly focus on the youth around here. There is so much energy in Nandanvan, and we just wanted to give them a place to focus that energy. Our name is a bit of a mouthful, Shaskiya Swanirman Vishwayuva Sankalp Foundation, but most folks just call us by the short name. The walls inside could use a fresh coat of paint, honestly. We have one fan that makes a clicking noise all day, but it keeps us cool enough. We spend a lot of time just talking to the families nearby. It’s more about the people than the paperwork for us. We don't have fancy business cards. If you need us, you just come to the house. We are usually there from morning until late evening. It's a busy life, but it feels right being right here in the middle of the community.
