Maroopa Devi Foundation

The Maroopa Devi Foundation is based in Ward No-6 on Bhatton Ki Gali. It’s a local spot where everyone knows everyone else. We don’t have a big office building or anything fancy. It’s just a room where we can sit and talk about how to help the community. We named it after Maroopa Devi because we wanted to honor that spirit of looking after people. We aren't a big organization with lots of money. We are just a group of people from the ward who decided to pool our resources and see what we could do. Most of the time, we are just dealing with everyday issues that come up in the street. We don't have a polished way of doing things. Sometimes we argue about the best way to handle a situation, but it always comes from a good place. We just want to make sure that people in Bhatton Ki Gali are looked after. It’s a small lane, and news travels fast, so we try to stay on top of things. We don't use a lot of big words or talk about missions and visions. We just talk about who needs help and how we can get it to them. It’s practical, hands-on work. Sometimes it’s tiring, and we don’t always see the results right away, but we stay at it. Being in Ward No-6 is where we belong, and we are just happy to be able to do something useful.
