| Purpose
To promote individual / institutional social investment (donations)
in communities through NGOs.
This effort will be supplimented by capacity building of management
of district level NGOs on fund raising and donor reporting.
Geographic Focus
All India.
Issue Focus
All issues
Process of donation
Direct donations to NGOs.
This will help in ensuring that 100% donations will go to the NGO
and not to fund raising / servicing organisations like us as well
as other credible organisations.
Corporates keen on an agency which will audit use of financial resources
and impact of their social investments can use the services of our
partner organisation CSR Consulting .
Two types of NGOs will benefit from
this excercise
1 IndianNGOs.com Recommended NGOs
We have about 1000 recommended NGOs in our database and some of
them will go online from Feburary 2012
2 Volunteer supported NGOs
In the last 12 years. we have observed that a lot of corporate volunteers,
HNIs and NRIs are working with smaller unbranded NGOs and they always
share such NGOs for donations in their circle of influence. We will
offer IndianNGOs.com platform for these individuals to promote such
NGOs provided they are willing to be communicated by our visitors
for any queries. We will of course not share the names and contact
details of such individuals in the open zone, but would give it
to only those who commit funds.
Do we offer Pay Roll Giving opportunities
No.
However, our partner organisation CSR Consulting is promoting a
basic module of PRG through HR departments directly to NGOs. This
new structure will have following benefits over most of the current
PRG modules.
1 It will mean that 100% of the donation will be given to the NGO.
2 It will mean that an individual can make a case to the organisation,
to give their donations to the NGO of their choice, rather than
limiting the NGO choice to those offered by current organisations
working in the PRG field. It will also help such individuals to
promote donations to such NGOs from their peers.
3 Most of the manufacturing organisations which have plants at district
level, can take a call to offer donations from plant level employees
to not just local NGOs, but can create their own programmes like
construction of road or rebuilding of the main road that leads from
highway to district , or giving water filters in nearby slums ...This
will help organisations build better bond with their neighbourhood
communities.
4 The funding needs and their priority changes at times and most
of the times, this will not get reflected in the PRG system, or
it will take anywhere upwards of 2 to 3 months for such change in
the system. With the PRG at the HR level, this can get changed easily.
And if the corporate has its own foundation, the entire PRG can
be routed through the foundation.
5 The NGOs will give 80 G or other certificates to the employees
faster because CSR department can have their own influence or power.
