They are a dedicated group of people working tirelessly for the upliftment of the down-trodden. They are operating out of a marriage hall in S.Kolathur. In this center, they segregate the collected items into different groups. The best part about them is that instead of donating clothes and other items, they offer them as rewards to the people in the rural areas, in exchange for any community work that benefits these rural areas. Instead of disposing off the unusable items they receive, they convert them into other items like small bags, which are on display in their office. Nice to know that there are such devoted individuals committed to making an improvement to the lives of the needy.

Really impressed by their concept of dignity for work. They do not believe in charity. They undertake improvement work in remote villages and provide kits to local people in return for the work they help in carrying out ( kits are prepared using clothes, crockery, foodgrains, toys, electronics etc ). They have been doing this for over 22 years now.kindly contribute to the good cause.

A place where you can donate all your unutilized things which Goonj can distrubute to unpreviliged people. It helps mostly during and after disaster. I found this NGO through KBC programme hosted recently. I did my contribution, you all please also go ahead abd contribute to the society.

I had been a regular visitor almost every 6 months for last 2 yrs. Must say, it is a great initiative. They take almost everything, sorts them and pack them and send to various parts. They provide you a receipt as well. You guys are doing a great job. Keep it up

I visited the Chennai branch of Goonj. The best part is that they accept things with the smile that you feel your memories deserve. It could be toys, in good condition that your children have outgrown or the small pressure cooker you picked when you got married or started cooking with. The list could be endless. The best part is that they distribute them with a dedicated team that accepts, sorts, packs, stacks, gets transported and also hands you a receipt of things that they receive. The only thing that makes it difficult for people to reach is the location but if you dont mind driving , it seems to be a very different part and aspect of Chennai.I had visited them when they were preparing family packs for the Fani affected families.All i can say is that it is a must visit with a thought of spreading a smile on someones face.

Good place to give away your used clothes, shoes and toys. They segregate the clothes and distribute usable clothes to the needy. Then they stich school bags, pillows for school students who sit on floor and napkins from cotton. They welcome you with water, explain what they do and give you the satisfaction that your donation of give away goes to right hands.

This NGO is very particular about their services. Open Monday to Saturday from 9.30 to 5 pm. Only problem is you have to go personally to drop all clothing, bedding and other things to their office, no pick up service provided unless it is at least one tempo full donation.
