ngoFuel 2.0 Relaunch
sukhmani grover
ngoFuel is a non-profit social enterprise facilitating technology usage to other non-profit organizations either free or at minimal cost. Our business model, designed to provide competitive technological solutions at prices way below the market value, relies on "crowd-sourcing".
In India, most NGOs and NPOs lack web presence and proper technical support, some of them are not even aware of the recent software developments; some have been misguided, ill-advised and ransacked while some lack basic infrastructure and access to software solutions that can be helpful to them. This is where ngoFuel comes in- We try to look for innovative ideas which have the potential to target all sectors while simultaneously working for the improvement of the society.
We empower NGOs and non-profits, making them technically capable of meeting current challenges and taking up new ones. Our solutions have a direct effect in helping NGOs provide better end-user services. Briefly, we provide complete “Technological Solutions” by implementing our crowd-sourcing model. Utilizing ngoFuel, we create a unique platform wherein we enable the youth to connect with the social sector by contributing through their skills; channelizing it to work on live projects and to get professional experience.
We offer the following services- Web Designing and Hosting, Photography and Graphic Design, Content Writing, Online Brand Development, nF Spotlight. “Our products offer credibility, awareness, increased public and market visibility at minimal costs to non-profits; thereby enabling them (and their funds) to concentrate on the real field work at hand.” We envision a future where the student community and the social sector join hands and work towards a better tomorrow.
Till date ngoFuel has worked with over 50 NGOs (ICT consulting) with organizations like Bhoomi, Prabodh, Sisters of the People, LetsGraduate, Prayas etc. With more than 400 registered volunteers and interns from all over the world the model has turned into a phenomenon. ngoFuel also offers six monthly internships and training to volunteers so as to help them as well as the NGOs. National Social Entrepreneurship Forum (NSEF) is helping nF in its endeavour.
ngoFuel was featured in the Top 30 student start-ups of India, a showcase organized by the National Entrepreneurship Network (NEN). We were also selected as the top six start-ups by Spring Board Ventures Bootcamp wherein we acquired the maximum votes. Our business plan was among the top 10, SRCC B-plan competition. ngoFuel has been featured on various online and offline media; we were recently showcased in the HT MINT newspaper and Hindustan (Hindi). We are the online partners for Genesis 2012(IIT Madras) and Eureka 2011.
We have also decided to take up a new initiative called nF spotlight, which is a feature e-magazine that is aimed at covering the works of various NGOs and highlighting their ideas and achievements. The base line for this initiative is to give the NGOs a stronger networking platform and a wider awareness base.
Our website had been out of service for the past couple of months since we were a little overloaded with work. But now the website is up and running. We have tried to make it more user-friendly so as to make it more convenient for volunteers and NGOs to register with us. We are trying our level best to help you in your noble endeavours and we would love to have your feedback. Please visit the website <http://ngofuel.org/> and feel free to contact us at any time.
