MANGO PEOPLE, मैंNGO a HINGLISH word, combining Hindi and English alphabets, where 'मैं'(Main) means 'ME' and 'NGO' stands for a 'Non-Government' Organisation.
​
In Non-Govern-ment, the word ‘MENT’ is derived from the Greek language which means ‘MIND’. Therefore, it is referred to be an organization that is not governed by mere Mind but also heart and soul. It is a Holistic Free Organisation with Unlimited Scope.
​
MANGO PEOPLE are soul-driven free thinkers, not governed by the mind of others, breaking the patterns, breaking the illusion, believe that life is way beyond, just trying to buy more comforts and luxury. The true riches to the mankind are the Natural Resources given to us by the Mother Earth.
