Use the power of technology to create a web platform that allows people to help NGOs in simple ways. We want to make contributions simple and fun!
We are creating something that will primarily clear some basic misconceptions like - contributions are not for everyone, i cannot contribute because I don't have the money to donate, i do not have the time to understand what cause I should support etc. The platform will allow people to contribute to organizations and people working on important social causes in simple ways. Contributing can just start with spreading the word about the NGO to all their friends. Volunteering, Fund raising, donating, buying their products are all various ways of conntributing.
Based on our research what we understood was that a lot of people are socially inclined but are not aware of what it means to "contribute" and perceive it as something that is not easy. We will eventually create something where every individual is contributing to some cause.
We will build multiple media through which we will deliver our content. We plan to build a website, and apps for various platforms. We are currently tying up with various NGOs in Bangalore to sell their products to people across India through our online store and corporate partners. Selling NGO proucts was out first step and we will start adding other forms of contribution onto the website soon.
By adding the right talent to the team we intend to move to other cities and scale the model.
We strongly believe that we are at an age where large sustainable change can happen only by bringing together a network of like minded people working towards something that they believe in. If enough people understand what we do and support us we will be able to create impact through the NGOs which already have the capability to do a lot of social good through their projects. All they need is support! And we want to gather the support for them.
