Parivaar

vidurgupta — Tue, 11 Sep 2007 04:56:00 +0000

Parivaar was founded by this guy called Vinayak, who graduated out of IIT Kharagpur and IIM Calcutta, which are among the top 3 engineering and b-schools in India, and then decided to devote his life to uplifting the lives of children. He’s used all his education to good effect with Parivaar growing from 3 kids in 2003 to 250 odd kids now.

Surojit, a friend of mine, has been to the home which is on the outskirts of Kolkata and has this to say “its quite remarkable the change he’s making in not just the lives of the kids, but also of the community around the home. He started up a school in the home which is open to everyone in the neighborhood. Parivaar is also now reaching out to help out other charities, so that they can use the systems/processes that hes set in place at Parivaar. This is also a charity, where you know that there is no money spent on marketing, or salaries for officials. Vinayak gets no salary, he only pays the staff who run the home.” So you know your money will be well spent on the kids.

Recently, my sister and group of friends started the ‘Small Steps Foundation’. SSF is a Not for Profit organization working to raise money that will be used to fund young and upcoming NGOs in India.

The goal is to promote education and betterment of children. Currently they are funding Sshrishti, a Delhi based NGO helping kids growing up in the slums.
