Falguni ji has been the consistent and sole volunteer of Goonj in Ahmedabad for a decade.

About a decade ago, there was an encounter with information about Goonj in a magazine, prompting the commencement of contributing material and money at collection camps in Pune. It was mentioned that the mission and vision of Goonj, involving the empowerment and assistance of communities while taking care of the environment through the 4 Rs (Reuse, Recycle, Reduce, and Recover), were noted to align with the thought process. The effort to contribute to this movement was described as involving the collection of materials and money for the cause.

Given the available space, the decision was made to establish a Permanent Collection Center with the assistance of the Goonj team at the respective location, where material is accepted once every week. It was expressed that this experience has been personally enriching, providing the opportunity to meet numerous people and hear their life stories.

From Childhood we have always seen our parents always supporting friends, neighbors, relatives, staff & even unknown people. We have grown up learning that if God wants to help someone the divine almighty, sarvashaktiman will choose from his loved ones to be a source of joy, happiness and need in some way or another.

Dheeraj Ji is one of our lead volunteers who has always been at the forefront and has widely encouraged his circle of people to be part of different activities with Goonj. He has been with our family for more than 5 years, consistently participating in Joy of Giving campaign. He is originally from Jammu and moved to Bangalore.

Gullak: a bit, a habit..! An 11-year-old girl from Srimitra Solitaire Apartment in Kasanavahalli, where the collection drive and gullak-making session were held, not only participated in the gullak-making session but also assisted her friends and other participants by sharing the extra materials she had brought. She was extremely helpful and enthusiastic in sharing the idea of making gullak more creative.

From compassion to action On the same lines of the Dalai Lama, who says that our prime purpose in life is to help others, we wish to highlight the story of a selfless volunteer whose persistent help is reaching the needy through Goonj.

She has had a zero-waste outlook in life, from the time she used to shift places and had to make the most of every resource around her, to now when she is making use of every possible piece of material in her capacity to repurpose it into wearable clothes for Goonj. Her flare to carve sculptures out of unused wood has translated into upcycling clothes for the needy.

It is always possible to be kind and Dipanjana ji is a living embodiment of it. She came down to the office and interacted with all the processing unit workers, showed them how she looked at different material, taught some tips and tricks to upcycle so that they could also implement it by themselves. The interaction was loved by processing center workers and she left them with many insights, a fresh spirit and in awe of her work.

Chennai Story A Public collection camp is conducted in the Besant Nagar by the volunteer Mr. Aravind Srinivasan in his home. Once the Goonj team member reached there to co-ordinate with collection drive, he welcomes the person with water and breakfast. The hospitality was very nice. He arranged the tables, chairs, etc which are needed to start the camp. Once, all are set, he shared the information in a WhatsApp group. All the contributors started coming to the drive and dropped the material. He came forward and explained to the contributors about the process in the processing unit and also about the initiatives of Goonj. The contributors who are not aware of the location, he shared the map and also guided them to reach to the drive while going to some walkable distance. This was a great and tremendous support from him. When handed over the souvenir to him, he politely refused stating to give to the contributors. After successful completion of the drive, he requested a person from his neighbour to load the material in the vehicle. Not only he supported in loading the material, her daughter also supported in loading the materials in the vehicle. The volunteer is soft hearted, down to earth person.

What started as a personal journey in 2015 to dispose a few bag of clothes in an optimal manner, my google search led to Goonj. However As the Vashi dropping centre got closed, I called up at the Goonj Mumbai office to know about how to conduct a public collection drive.

Also conducted a few walkathons amongst the volunteers of Goonj to spread awareness in the public and along the way wherever we found opportunities to exhibit Goonj As an organisation like every year in Navi Mumabi and Thane Happy Streets, Goonj is able to interact with lots of citizens on a Sunday morning.

For a wilful, multi-lingual and inquisitive person, the sky is the limit. Here at Goonj you will be tasked with various activities and opportunities which will take you on a whirlwind of self-discovery while having tons of fun. During your internship you get to organize and be a part of various awareness initiatives organized by Goonj. If there are any specific skill sets which you have, please inform us so we can proceed in that direction.
