How donors must engage NGOs for better social results
In India's complex ecosystem of social change, the relationship between those who provide funds and those who dedicate their lives to work on the ground deserves far more attention. It is a relationship that at its best can contribute to real change, but can also be stifling. My reflections are rooted in our learnings (and some mistakes) at the foundation I am part of. We currently support over 1,400 NGOs across the country, from new entities to well-established institutions. We receive over 300 formal grant requests every month. These numbers provide a large bed of experience to identify good practices and missteps. This is an unsolicited note to fellow donors—philanthropic foundations, corporate social responsibility spenders and individuals—on how we can try to fulfil our roles better.
