First
let us be clear.
NGO Founders are important because they started
this excercise.
NGO CEO is important because it means that the founder
is visionary and looked at succession planning when
he leaves the NGO or leaves the world. It is like
Gift Deed which the founder's father deed when he
was alive and not left to WILL which acts after
he leaves the world. So NGO Founder must do this
"Gift Deed" where she or he should gift
the decision making authority to next generation
when founder is alive so that founder can guide
CEO for few days or few months and then leave (not
world but NGO work).
And that CEO may be from within the NGO or from
outside, she or he should be not just fit to take
over commitment to community & climate but use
new technologies.
We plan to share 10000 NGO Founders / CEOs in the
world.
They are shared by their name (and next to the name
is shared locations where they have programmes or
their location) , with one para profile and at the
end, we share the NGO they started or are part of.
And yes, we also share those who have left earth
because we want you to know their greatness. Like
Bhau,
founder's father left earth on 15.2.2015 but the
amount of simplicity and the way he stood by truth
(not allowing emotions and relations to take over)
is too much for millions of people to replicate.
We
know there are millions of NGOs in the world (In
India, there are some 3.3. million NGOs) and we
do not know their credibility. We had started credit
rating of NGOs for our earlier company IndianNGOs.com
Pvt. Ltd. in 2001 to 2003 and realised that it takes
months to credit rate 1 NGO. So rating millions
of NGOs is not possible for any organisation. Also,
it is unfortunate, that in many countries, NGOs
have no succession planning and as soon as the founder
retires or leaves the world, the NGO also goes in
that mode. Of course, there are exceptions to this
and world must follow this practise.
More
important is that corporates, funding agencies,
philanthropists ... will visit CSRidentity.com and
look at NGOs they can partner with. And they want
to partner wit those NGOs which are already financially
supported by corporates, foundations, funding agencies,
celebrities because of many things like a policy
to partner with any NGO for only 3 years or 5 years
or they want to explore new partners for additional
locations where the current NGO partner doesnt work
or they may think of other social issues where their
current NGO partner does not work ... and it should
not happen that they continue to financially support
an NGO because they have no one else funding them.
So
the best way is to share NGOs with following criteria
1) NGOs whose founder is an Ashoka Fellow. Founder
is an Ashoka Fellow for 2005-08 period and knows
the criteria of selection of a fellow to whom they
support. Yes, they financially support for some
time but put them in the network of Ashoka Fellows
lifetime.
There are about 4000 Ashoka Fellows in 93 odd countries.
2) NGO Founder who gets fellowship from other great
organisations.
3) NGO Founder who gets national level award in
her or his country either by national government
or corporate which has more than 500 employees or
Funding Agencies / Corporation Foundations which
have minimum budget of Rs 5 crores a year or USD
600000/- or its equivalent in any country
4) NGO Founder is supported by well known corporates
or funding agencies or corporate foundations or
philanthropists.
5) NGO Founder is invited as a speaker by TED
6) NGO founder who gets national award (awards given
only by the country government) or international
award like Magsaysay.
We think of NGOs because of the simple idea that
the NGO should exist beyond founder.
CSRidentity.com
founder Sanjay Kumud Moreshwar Bapat will sponsor
(which means he will integrate his Investment &
Time ; IIT is his identity) before giving it to
a sponsor who can not only take over but grow number
of NGO Founders & CEOs and globally make them
Brands which people should respect like Nobel Laureates
or Olympic winners.
Of course the scale will be differenct because between
1901 and 2024, the Nobel Prizes and the Sveriges
Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of
Alfred Nobel were awarded 627 times to 1,012 people
and organisations. With some receiving the Nobel
Prize more than once, this makes a total of 976
individuals and 28 organisations. We are talking
about 10000 numbers by 31.3.2027 and maybe more.
That's why we say like Nobel Laureates or Olympic
winners. When it comes to Olympic winners, we think
all who participate in Olympices are winners (not
winning gold or silver or bronze medal but particiation
itself is difficult for ordinary people)
Founder
Sanjay Kumud Moreshwar Bapat would like to be a
sponsor because he knows Bhau & others postponed
his death on 28.08.2013 to serve mother earth and
he knows that no philanthropist or organisation
or government or UN can have programmes in all countries
addressing social challenges with timely solutions.
NGO Social Doctors are great individuals who can
help other stakeholders in addressing the challenges
communities across the world are facing because
their criterion is not to make profits but to ensure
satisfaction of people in the communities they serve.
Founder may think of giving sponsorship to organisations
in April 2026 for a donation which helps him serve
the NGOs with knowledge. And these are all NGOs
and not just the NGOs whose founders or CEOs are
shared here because many NGOs may not be shared
for various reasons like the privacy NGO wants to
maintain or the NGO has done great work but yet
no donor has recognised and supported their work.
Our
NGO Developed
Nation Network Trust, has Section 80 G as well as
FCRA. So donation can be from any country. And the
donation will be used to invest time & money
in answering NGO Management Questions by Corporate
Managements. Its not Question & Answer session
but we will plan about 100 to 200 questions NGO
Managements have like "How to raise funds?",
"How to approach corporaetes?", "How
to approach funding agencies?", "How to
do PR of the NGO with media?" .... and on top
of the page, we will have a language translator
so that the answer is shared in English but it can
be translated in over 100 other languages.
The
donation period for founder sponsorship : 1 June
2025 to 31 March 2026
