Executive Summary
India offers astounding variety in virtually every aspect of social life. Diversities of ethnic, linguistic, regional,
economic, religious, class, and caste groups crosscut Indian society, which is also permeated with immense
urban-rural differences and gender distinctions. Differences between north India and south India are
particularly significant, especially in systems of kinship and marriage. Indian society is multifaceted to an
extent perhaps unknown in any other of the world’s great civilizations—it is more like an area as varied as
Europe than any other single nation-state. Adding further variety to contemporary Indian culture are rapidly
occurring changes affecting various regions and socioeconomic groups in disparate ways. Yet, amid the
complexities of Indian life, widely accepted cultural themes enhance social harmony and order.
One of the great themes pervading Indian life is social interdependence. People are born into groups—families,
clans, sub-castes, castes, and religious communities—and feel a deep sense of inseparability from these groups.
People are deeply involved with others, and for many, the greatest fear is the possibility of being left alone,
without social support. Psychologically, family members typically experience intense emotional
interdependence. Economic activities, too, are deeply imbedded in a social nexus. Through a multitude of
kinship ties, each person is linked with kin in villages and towns near and far. Almost everywhere a person
goes, he can find a relative from whom he can expect moral and practical support.
In every activity, social ties can help a person and the absence of them can bring failure. Seldom do people
carry out even the simplest tasks on their own. When a small child eats, his mother puts the food into his mouth
with her own hand. When a girl brings water home from the well in pots on her head, someone helps her
unload the pots. A student hopes that an influential relative or friend can facilitate his college admission. A
young person anticipates that parents will arrange his or her marriage. Finally, a person facing death expects
that relatives will conduct the proper funeral rites ensuring his own smooth passage to the next stage of
existence and reaffirming social ties among mourners.
This sense of interdependence extends into the theological realm. From birth onward, a child learns that his
“fate” has been “written” by divine forces and that his life is shaped by powerful deities with whom an ongoing
relationship must be maintained.

Most management theories discuss the impact of human behaviour in an organization, society, and community.
A business school which fails to address the behaviour of people in a society fails in its purpose - to develop a
manager with human values. In order to align this goal with its management programs, all students are required
to contribute to social initiatives as volunteers.
VESIM is a constituent of Vivekanand Education Society (VES), which was conceptualized to materialize the
dream of “social equality”. Following the footsteps of its parent organization, VESIM has been supporting
various social initiatives since its inception. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) at VESIM has evolved to
include the participation of students, the local community, NGOs, and faculty members.
Principles of CSR
CSR at the Institute encourages students to imbibe values of enlightened leadership, which focuses on the
following principles:
CSR Cell of the Institute aspires to be known as a Center of Excellence, and has already initiated
collaborations with NGO’s for CSR projects in relevant areas such as education, health, environment,
and community development.
VESIM empowers students by providing several opportunities to serve underprivileged sections of
society, and enhance their quality of life.
Incorporating CSR in the curriculum of various management courses.
We For You Charitable Trust has enhanced my marketing and branding skills. There I learnt about
managing, anchoring, handling, patience & other related things but most precisely setting papers. While I
was doing my MBA and had theoretical knowledge of all the above topics, working here has given me
that practical exposure which provides detailed understanding of the topic. Also, working with a grassroot
organization at a very building block will show you the real meaning of development activities.

Global Goals
Goal 1 No poverty

Ruchira R. Nakte
Ex-Student
It's been 4 years since I left Chhabildas school. I can't forget the teachers and friends who put confidence in
me.When I joined I was in 2nd standard. At first I was scared because at that time I was worried about how to
speak English. I was unable to speak in English and to understand English. But the teachers were so helpful
that they make me free, comfortable and I learned to speak in English, understand English and write in
English. There were so many activities with studies for eg., sports, competitions, Ganpati fest, Diwali fest,
workshop etc. I got opportunity to learn different things. There were classes like drawing class, computer
lecture. We all students used to do so much masti and sometimes we got punished but I learned lots of things
that I can't forget. The best thing was when we used to go for competition and we won the 1st prize and the
happiness we saw in our teacher's eyes and that smile. I made so much of my memories with my friends.
Whatever I am writing in English now is possible because of the teachers of WE FOR YOU CHARITABLE
TRUST who helped me. Now I can speak better English and I can understand. Maybe the words are less to
thank the teachers who put confidence in me.
I joined the NGO when I was in 1st standard and studied from 1st standard to 8th standard. In those 8 years I
had many great experiences. I learnt many different things from the Workshops, these were the one of the
favorite things that I love. On summer workshop or Diwali workshop volunteers came and taught us many
activities, games and other things. In every workshop Miss brought something new for us. I was very weak in
Maths but could improve my studies after they started teaching on computers. Miss took many exercises of
English. Dipmala miss was an expert in Maths because of her I improved my studies in Maths. Farida miss
and Maria miss were the experts of English. Manisha miss was best in grammar and Nita miss was the best
teacher and the best cook also.Every New Year Miss brought something new and different for us. After
Sujaya Farida miss and other teachers created a new foundation called WE FOR YOU CHARITABLE
TRUST. Now I am the ex-student of Sujaya, still Miss calls me on every workshop of WE FOR YOU
CHARITABLE TRUST and I join every workshop of WE FOR YOU CHARITABLE TRUST and I enjoy it.

Janhavi Futak
Ex-Student
I remember when I joined the NGO I was in 2nd standard. I was feeling so bored to get up early in the
morning and go to school. But after some days I felt it so interesting where I could enjoy and learn
something. The teachers were very nice who encouragedus and supported us to speak better English. From
2nd standard to 8th standard the journey was really amazing which is unforgettable. Every time they used
some tricks to enjoy that particular subject which students understand very well.
I have a lot of memories connected with participating in drama competitions, dance competitions, sports. I
remember the drama we performed named as ’Bolbacchan’. We participated in dance competition and
performed Yoga fusion and won 2nd prize in it. The staff of WE FOR YOU CHARITABLE TRUST always
make some new plans for students.
Every day we used to gather in the hall and pray, do yoga, eat the snacks and the lectures were scheduled for
the day.I remember when we were in 8th standard we performed a drama for all teachers. We arranged gifts,
did drama, dance and many more activities.It was really an amazing experience for me. Now missing those
days, that masti, those beautiful and interesting sessions. At last I understood the motive behind those tricks
and plans just not to teach them but also to understand that concept and when we enjoy a particular thing it
becomes interesting and we observe and understand it more.

Day 9 –
01-02-2020
On the very next day that is on the 1st February 2020, we had been assigned the
administration work-
In particular
Many NGOs find it difficult to garner sufficient and continuous funding for their work.
Gaining access to appropriate donors is a major component of this challenge. They may have
limited resource mobilization skills locally, so instead they wait for international donors to
approach them. Current donors may shift priorities and withdraw funding. The NGO might suffer
from a general lack of project, organizational and financial sustainability.
Many NGOs suffer from the lack of a cohesive, strategic plan that would facilitate success
in their activities and mission. This renders them unable to effectively raise and capitalize on
financial support.
A lack of effective governance is all too common in NGOs. Many have a deficit of
understanding as to why they must have a Board and how to set one up. A founder may be too
focused on running the NGO for their own purposes; however, governance is foundational to
transparency.
Many NGOs do not maximize the use of current technologies that could facilitate better
communication and networking. More effective use of technology can assist NGOs in staying
abreast of important regional, national and global concerns.
34
Limited Capacity
NGOs often lack the technical and organizational capacity to implement and fulfill their
mission, and few are willing or able to invest in training for capacity building. Weak capacity
affects fundraising ability, governance, leadership and technical areas.
Development Approaches
Grant-- Funding
1. Locate Opportunities. Find an appropriate grant and funder for their focus and mission.
2. Solid Concept Note / First Round Application. NGOs must answer all criteria and
provide all of the information the donor/funder requires. Not following the guidelines will result
in immediate disqualification.
3. Proposal. Once an NGO passes the first application state, a proposal will be requested.
The proposal must be well-written and error-free. Most importantly, it must contain all of the
necessary elements to show the donor that the NGO has a strategy and high-quality team
members.
Challenges such as poor governance, a lack of strategic planning, and poor networking can all
be addressed through:
Capacity Building
Capacity building and training can help to provide crucial new skills. NGOs can then more
readily train staff and cultivate the necessary skills within the organization to address challenges
going forward.
The ability to reach out for needed advice and guidance whenever required during a project or to
optimize NGO operations is extremely valuable. Access to qualified experts will inspire
confidence in donors and contribute to the project’s success. NGOs will naturally become more
efficient, streamlined and effective.
All NGOs should be using a minimum of Internet, email, a basic website and relevant social
medial platforms.
36
Income Generation
NGOs with assets can use any surplus to help generate income. Renting out buildings, offering
training, providing consultancy, creating and selling products and trading on your name are just a
few examples.
If your NGO is facing any of the challenges described above, Maxim pact can help. We
offer training and capacity building to strengthen your organization and assist you in meeting
your goals.
37
Has this project changed or diverted or added some new dimension in your career
Plan?
Yes, working in the NGO I met some really wonderful people who inspired me to push my
limits. They taught me to think about the society first and myself later. There were times
when success got into my head and I became a little demanding, but I later understood that
things don't work out unless you are cool headed and humble. In a way volunteering has not
only taught me about the various challenges in the society but it is also helping me improve
myself as a person every single day. I find a lot of happiness doing my bit for the society.
The joy that I get when I meet young kids or old people in orphanages or old age
homes is soul touching. I've understood that relationships are not always made through
blood. I'm indeed lucky to have chosen volunteering. Had I not have been with this
NGO, I don’t think I would have been the person that I am today.
38
After doing this project did you realized that you are feeling more responsible citizen
and have more responsibility towards society?
Yes, after doing Yuva for Seva I did realize that there are so many problems face by our
society and we as MBA students can do so much to create a change in our society. As a
responsible MBA student, I have understood that what my responsibilities are. The
following are my ways to combat those issues:
Business skills are transferrable and important
Real issues are not apparent
Don't shift for an easy life
Money matters
Empathy is non-negotiable
Look for a cultural fit
If you get some opportunity would you like to work in such organization for short
period of time say a month in a year to contribute for larger purpose of societal
welfare?
Yes, we would like to come back to the NGO and help the NGO in assistance to their
courses and modules. We even kept a proposal to the NGO to give us an opportunity to
come in weekends and help the students .
