Lucky Youth Foundation

Our foundation is in Karve, which is a village in the Chandgad area. We are based at M.No. 374, c/o Shri Shivaji Bharmu Birje. This is a very small place, and our office is just a simple room in the village. We started Lucky Youth Foundation because there aren't many things for the young people to do here once they finish school. We wanted to give them a place to gather and maybe learn some new things. It’s a very informal setup. We don't have big desks or computers for everyone. Mostly, we just sit and talk about what we can do to improve things in the village. We are all local people, so we know the families and the struggles they face. We don't have any big corporate donors. We just use our own time and whatever small resources we can find. Sometimes we organize a local sports match or help someone with their school applications. It’s not a complicated operation. We just try to be a positive influence for the youth in Karve. The village is quiet, and things move slowly, but we are okay with that. We aren't trying to be a huge NGO. We just want to make life a little better for the kids in our own backyard. It’s a modest effort, but it’s ours, and we take it seriously in our own way.
