Thanawala Foundation

You can find us in Thane, right across from Eternity Mall. We are in the Nandanvan Industrial Estate, building AB/five. Being near Teen Hath Naka means the traffic is always a topic of conversation when anyone arrives. The industrial estate has a lot of different businesses, so there’s always a bit of a buzz around. Thanawala Foundation occupies a modest space on one of the lower floors. It’s a bit gray and functional, as you’d expect from an industrial area. We have some heavy desks and those old-fashioned blue filing cabinets. The air conditioner makes a bit of a rattling noise, but it keeps the humidity down. We don't really do much in terms of decorating. Most of the space is taken up by paper stacks and books. We usually go to the mall nearby if we need a break or something to eat, but mostly we just stay at our desks. It’s not a fancy place for meetings. Usually, we just pull up a stool for visitors. We spend a lot of time on the computer or talking to people over the phone. It gets a bit loud when the trucks are loading nearby, but we don't mind much. The location is convenient for us since it's easy to get to the highway. We’ve been operating out of this unit for several years now. It’s a practical base for what we do every day without any unnecessary frills or extra costs that we don't need.
