“We Don't Donate our things, we often discard them,  ” said Mr. Anshu Gupta, a Magsaysay Award Winner and The Founder of Goonj, an NGO.  

Goonj is a pan-India movement working equally widely in cities and villages, dealing with more than 3000 tons of material annually. Through its team, thousands of volunteers and partner organizations, It reaches out urban under-utilized material to remote village communities to address their basic needs. 

The NGO has a complete set of processing unit Established in the rural areas of Sarita Vihar where they follow the process of Creating Happiness among Rural people and distribute that happiness in the form of Products like Clothes to Wear & Other Necessities for a Living.

We segregate collected goods into different categories like clothes, stationaries, musical instruments etc which is then processed to make some beautiful bI- products such as bags and towels,”  said Mrs. Priyanka, An Enthusiast Team Member Of Goonj 




The best part of Goonj is that it not only collects and processes goods for the Rural People but it also provides its flood relief services known as “Rahat” which gives food and other services to the people who are/were affected by floods in different parts of India. 

Daily around 50 Trucks are being dispatched from there premises for the Flood AID in different parts of India,” said An Active member of the NGO 



Books are very important for the people who read them so as a part of An Important Initiative of Goonj Called “SchoolKart Cares” in which they urge people to contribute in the form of Old Books and then in future sell it to various people who visit the NGO and also gives these books who need them in the Rural Areas. 



Goonj as an NGO Does not have any special recognition by the government but is the best example of NGO which is working successfully on the foundation of Donors and Contributors who assist in different forms such as financially, Culturally & Socially just because of faith & Respect Created by them in the society.  

The Foundations Like This are Needed all across the country at a very large Scale …Goonj Is a Successful and an out of the box initiative who really things that    Change Matters
