Nanma Charitable Foundation

Nanma Charitable Foundation is based right here on Elanji Lane. If you head down Gandhariamman Kovil Street near the GPO, you’ll find us at TC 81/407. Thiruvananthapuram is a busy city, and our little corner is no different. The office is usually a bit of a mess with papers and boxes. We aren't the type to have everything in neat little rows. That is just not how we work. We are a small team and we do what we can with what we have. Most days involve talking to neighbors or sorting out things for folks who need a hand. It’s a bit noisy with the street traffic so close, but we like being in the middle of everything. We don't have a corporate office or a board of directors in suits. It’s just us in regular clothes trying to be useful. The lane is narrow, so parking is always a headache for anyone visiting. We’ve been here for a while and the locals know us by name. We don't put out fancy brochures or run big ads. Usually, people just hear about us from someone else. It feels more natural that way. We just keep our heads down and do the work. The fans in the office hum all day and we keep the windows open for the breeze. It’s a simple life and a simple way of doing things. We just want to help out where it's needed.
