Non-Governmental Organizations in the country have come into existence with all
might. Through their dedicated and selfless work, a lot of these foundations
have strengthened their position in the society. In fact, a few of them have
even carved a name for themselves and have also impacted society in a very
positive way. These NGOs in India listed below, however, have to overcome a lot
of problems that are prevalent in our country such as a lack of transparency or
corruption.
The Ila Trust
Way back in 1994, Ila Trust was a project that was initiated by Reeta Devi
who had worked with Mother Teresa ever since she was sixteen years old. Ila
Trust also currently has three mobile clinics, four pharmacists, eleven doctors
along with six screeners and some administrative staff that takes care of the
health issues of various Delhi slum dwellers. The NGO has also been promoted by
the famous Indian management and marketing guru and columnist Suhel Seth. He is also the
Chairman of The Ila Trust and supports the efforts to provide healthcare to the
ones who need it most.
Smile Foundation
One of the
most reputed NGOs in the country, Smile Foundation is one institution that has
benefited more than 7,50,000 children along with their families every year. It
reaches to more than 1000 remote villages as well as slums across 25 states in
the country through their massive live projects dealing with education,
livelihood, healthcare as well as women empowerment. Founded in 2002 with an
aim to bring about positive changes in the lives of underprivileged children
and their families.
Magic Bus
Founded in the year 1999
by Matthew Spacie, Magic Bus is one of the best and most reputed NGOs in Mumbai
and has also impacted the lives of 1 million children in the last two decades.
Working with children between the age group of 12 - 18 years, the foundation
aims at providing them with knowledge and skills in order to help them move out
of poverty. The foundation also ensures that the children complete their
secondary education, prevent early marriages and also have the right skills for
employment. Currently, Magic Bus is present in about 22 states and annually
works with 375000 children and about 1000 young people. This NGO that is
located in Mumbai has actually grown over the years and now even provides its
services in Nepal, Myanmar as well as Bangladesh.
These are a few NGOs that have been tirelessly working for the betterment of
the country in whatever manner possible - for we need to unite in order to make
this world a better place.
