Goonj Social entrepreneur: Anshu Gupta Field: Community Work Headquartered at: New Delhi Year of Establishment: 1999 Legal Form of Business:not-for-prot organization www.goonj.org Udyogini Goonj has demonstrated that cloth can be a powerful resource for the development of Indias poorest communities. It channels excess resources lying waste in urban households to impoverished rural and disaster-prone areas. Materials include clothes, furniture, electronic equipment, and medical supplies. Village and slum communities, in exchange of cloth and material, conduct self-organized local development and infrastructure building programs, leading to more than 500 infrastructure projects every year such as the setting up of schools, concrete roads, bridges, wells, irrigation canals and toilets across 1500 villages. Sourcing its material at collection camps in urban neighbourhoods and corporate ofces, Goonj delivers 1000 tons of material every year through an extensive network of 500 volunteers, 200 schools, 200 corporate houses and 250 NGO partners across 21 states of India. Goonjs expansive; last-mile networks have made it the most efcient channel for large-scale disaster rehabilitation in the country. Its programs have spurred behaviour change on both the demand and supply sides: marginal communities have begun to believe in their own capacity for catalyzing change while urban India is learning to contribute (rather than dispense) material, based on what the poor need.
