What is The India Sponsor Foundation?

The India Sponsor Foundation is a registered not for profit organisation, set up in February 2001. Its goal is to accelerate the pace of social development, by working through the Voluntary Sector in India. It believes in supporting innovative grassroot organisations that target marginalised groups and offer transparency and scalability. The India Sponsor Web site is a one-stop information portal that allows collaboration between NGOs, Volunteers, Donors, Corporates, the Government and other organisations.

 

 

How did the India Sponsor Foundation get started?

The India Sponsor Foundation is the brainchild of a group of IT professionals who wanted to use their IT skills and network to further the cause of the Voluntary Sector. This was also an answer to NRIs and other Indian philanthropists who wanted to be certain they could contribute to the social cause in India with assurances of credibility and accountability.
