Bgy Foundation

In the Jainagar area of Madhubani, you will find Bgy Foundation. We are based in Rajputanatola, which is part of the Jainagar Basti. Manju Devi is the person in charge, and we operate from her place. It is a very traditional neighborhood with a lot of history. The streets can be narrow and sometimes it is a bit of a maze to get here, but everyone knows Manju Devi. We don’t have a corporate office with glass walls. We have a simple room with some benches and a desk. Most of our work happens through talking to people face to face. We are right there in the village, so we see what is happening every day. It is not a job where you clock in and out; it is just part of living here in Rajputanatola. We help out with whatever comes up in the community. Sometimes it is a lot of paperwork, and other times it is just being a middleman for local issues. The atmosphere is very relaxed. We don't use fancy titles or have big meetings. We just get together when there is something to do. Being in Madhubani, we are surrounded by a lot of culture, and that shows in how we talk and work. It is a simple, honest life we lead here, and the foundation is just one part of that. We try to keep things easy and helpful for everyone in the Basti.
