New Delhi (India CSR): The Shikhar Dhawan Foundation, has opened up the applications for the Impact 11 programme by Shikhar Dhawan’s non-profit organization, with the aim to help the people in need and aid the organizations working for the welfare of the society. We act as an enabler by building the capacities of the NGOs and civil society organizations. We adopt and incubate NGOs working for different causes for a period of twelve months, throughout which we provide them with guidance and support in various aspects such as scalability, organizational structure, technology, sustainability, branding, and marketing amongst others. Our programs aim to nurture and transform these organizations so that they can create concrete changes in society. The aim is to work towards addressing the issue of providing quality education, hunger eradication, job creation, eradication of poverty, illiteracy, and other issues which are prevalent in the society.
The Shikhar Dhawan Foundation will shortlist and adopt 11 NGOs for one year, through a registration process. Non-profit organizations that are seeking to create sustainable solutions to social issues can apply to get adopted by the Shikhar Dhawan Foundation. The foundation will help these NGOs with one-on-one mentoring for the on-ground work and guide them with various problem-solving processes.
