Relief India Trust

Starting a NGO with the right intentions to help the poor and needy people of the society is definitely a very noble move. Unfortunately, all of the NGOs are not lucky to have all the success that Relief India trust has got. There are some NGOs which start their organization with all the right intentions and in very high spirits, but unfortunately they do not always succeed.. The initial times can be very tough for any NGO and it may test the patience of its management big time. Only the NGOs that have management with the right skills and aptitude can successfully come out as a winner form the initial tough time that almost all the NGOs face. There can be different reasons for the failure of an NGO. Some can be internal issues while some get affected by some external factors as well. Challenges are always there for any work that you are looking to begin. The important thing here is that how you tackle those challenges in order to ensure a smooth organization with a great future ahead. The Relief India Trust stresses a lot on the NGOs to make a point of all the factors that can cause failure and then find solutions that how they can tackle such situations which are taking them towards a failure.

The reasons behind failure of the NGOs:

There can be countless reasons for the failure of an NGO. There may be an NGO which experiences a failure caused by an entirely weird or a new reason which no other NGO has ever faced in the past. The need here is to be prepared for all the worst situations, especially if you are new in the circuit or your NGO is not doing well. According to Relief India Trust, following are the main reasons which can cause a failure for a NGO:

·         No clear aims, objectives and goals can lead to a failure.

·         Weak administration and the incompetency of the management can result in unwanted situation.

·         The NGOs must have a reliable accountability system which should be transparent as well. This is something what the donors usually want to see in an NGO.

·         The inadequate funds or the inability to keep consistency in funds can crash an NGO overnight.

·         Poor organizational structure can also be a root cause of an NGO failure.

·         Looking to work in all the social sectors at once can be a dangerous thing to do. The new NGOs must have a much focused approach with full concentration given on one particular social sector.

·         The egoistic approach of NGOs where they are competing with other NGOs for all the negative reason can be very lethal.

·         The inability to recruit and sustain exceptional volunteers can be a cause for failure as the momentum achieved through the volunteers is unmatchable.

·         Political interference or any such other activity can also cause failure.
