ConnectFor

ConnectFor is a CSR project by the Rosy Blue Foundation. It is an online platform that aims to connect NGOs with volunteers and create structure within the Indian development sector. This model has worked tremendously well in other countries, and we hope to achieve goals of the same magnitude within the Indian context. We seek to enable volunteering in a way that is win-win for both the NGO and the volunteer. We look at the NGOs and try to best serve their needs by working closely with them. We currently have over 500 partner organizations across India. Our partner NGOs tell us what requirements they have that they are seeking to fulfill through volunteers, and we make those opportunities live on our website, and accessible to anyone who wants to volunteer. Our goal is to demonstrate how individuals' donation of time and skill can be as effective as donating money. We are a fund-free platform because we do not charge our volunteers or our NGOs to use our basic service. Currently, we work with volunteers and NGOs situated in Mumbai, Bengaluru, Pune, Delhi & Ahmedabad. We have also conducted group volunteering for corporate engagement and CSR across all the major metros in India including Kolkata, Chennai, Delhi, and several other cities.
