NGOs
are Non Government Organisations and they help Governments
in addressing the challenges of the issue.
So in NGO coverage we will include government departments
so that one knows how government is helping the issue and
also will add UN help because in most of the cases UN works
with governments of countries.
In case of Thane district which is a district in India,
we are integrating the work of Government, NGOs, UN, Corporates,
Corporate Foundations, Funding Agencies, Philanthropists
& Celebrities and value volunteering groups. So instead
of Senior Citizens NGOs in any Thane district, the link
goes to Senior Citizens Thane.
Please
Note
We are sharing the names of NGOs and in some places link
to their website so that visitors can see the actual programme.
It is not possible either through human intelligence or
artificial intelligence to study the credibility of 300
000 NGOs.
Hence the donors can directly check the credibility of the
NGOs they partner with through their own departments or
can use consultants or experts or other specialised portals.
In
case of India, many large corporates have offices or branches
at district level, so their employees at the location can
also voluntarily check the credibility of the NGOs.
It
may help if donors approach the local bank (village, city
or district level branch) to know whether the NGO has any
transactions in the last 6 months or a year. (We are not
saying ask amount but they can say check the credibility
of the donor any may share the facts - again, not number
of transactions or amount in transaction, more so if they
know that some one is trying to help the communities through
NGOs and are helping the government in tackling social challenges)
CSRidentity.com thinks that many NGOs may be doing good
work to help local communities but may not get donors at
village level, so they use their own funds or get some support
from District, State / UT or National Governments. So it
is not right to exclude their name but at the same time
give precautions to donors.
Please note that we have observed that in case of NGOs in
India, they share their name in 10 or more issues on related
government site. So 2 50 000 NGOs in India may mean that
25 00 000 times the names of these 2 50 000 NGOs are shared.
