| Payroll Givers visit NGOs! |
As a part of the several donor engagement initiatives planned for this year, we organized visits to two of our listed NGOs - Muktangan and Mumbai Mobile Creches for several of our corporate Payroll Giving partners. A good number of employees from corporates such as JLT, ICICI Prudential AMC, Reliance Securities, HDFC Bank and Reliance Mutual Fund came along on these visits. The visit gave employees a a chance to see first hand the activities of the organisations that they support. They also had a great time interacting and playing with the kids there. As they put it, there's no greater satisfaction than actually "seeing" the difference your monthly contributions make.

How's that? All money raised will be used towards a Matching Pool which will be used to incentivise other NGOs and corporates to raise even more funds through the India Giving Challenge. In 2010, Rs. 65 lacs of matching money helped raise Rs. 2+ crores through 9,000 donors i.e. nearly 3x the impact of the matching amount. Learn more on how money in this Matching Pool was utilized.
