There are many non-profit organizations and groups who are actually working for the betterment of people. Www. Webemployed. Com for example, is doing a great work by educating young people to start earning money online even if they don't have physical jobs. I think these type of causes will definitely help the general public.

Hello everyone, According to me, NGO should act like a non-charitable trust that is a non-profit organisation and contribute something meaningful to society as corporates are already providing something to society and generating profits on the same for further expansion and growth of self. NGo are often exempted from paying tax so if they start earning for themselves also deal with some fraudulent and illegal activities. Many NGOs are often recognised for their selfless service and are funded by corporates as part of CSR activities, or by HNW individuals.

For example, I worked in Vimochana which is an NGO for women's empowerment which is recognised and funded by Azim Premji who is the founder of WIPRO they empower women by providing them with employment opportunities by offering them various job roles to work with them, educating women from low economic background about various government schemes for small business ideas to be financially independent and so on. So I have closely worked with an NGO so I know how greatly it impacts society for good.

In India, there are various types of NGOs. Few of them are stray animals related. The animals who got injured in various accidental cases, by these types of NGO they can be provided first aid. A large number of NGOs are working well. But the government should also set some rules and regulations for opening an NGO. By these types of actions, the other people who want to serve in an NGO or want to give donations to any type of NGO can have a clear view so that their efforts to bring revolution can be done in the right way.

Good morning everyone.

So in my opinion, as everyone said NGO which is working of for the human welfare and represent as being human has its goods side as well as bedside in 2 days new India generation to work for the weekend society of India and also them without any profit work for these society to provide a proper hospital and also eat provide appropriate treatment to these backwards society but on the other hand as we say that. You also had a bad side, this is because of an organisation that represents them as an NGO, but on the same day, they also do human trafficking. They also lead to scams like money laundering and drugs of life so believe in these NGO which has proper certification and a proper noun for their work, not to the not believe in the organisation that represents them as an NGO without any proper noun or certificate. So I stand on this point, what is your opinion on these?

Greeting to All.

NGO's mean Non-Governmental Organisations. They work, with or without profit, autonomously, i.e., without the government's support or authority. Mostly comprising of youth, they have contributed a lot to society through cleanliness drives, educational camps, medical camps and social work in other fields too.

Whether they work for society or themselves depends on their motive and spirit. Just like any other organisation, what drives their work matters. Take a children's NGO for instance. Their vision may be to get the basic and essential needs of children of all backgrounds met. For that, they would need funders, persuaders, innovators and good organisers. Their motive ill be the same: help the kids grow in a better environment for a better future. But circumstances, the teamwork, the level of competency with society's ills and norms and their own functioning may cause them to deviate from what they are supposed to do. There are times, even if they have everything set on the table, they won't have the capital to savour the dish. Even scheduling, people's response and enthusiasm also matter. We go to hear political meetings; however, it may bore us and we throng to theatres and stadiums, however useless it may be, but we won't take the initiative to contribute or help an NGO initiate a medical camp for our local community. We need to consider where we are dumping our money. Even NGO s are human associations wanting some recognition and popularity. Let's work together to build a bright future with the selfless work of charity by NGOs, to streamline India's development.

Hi everyone.

In my point of view, some NGOs work for their own vested interests, like they do more publicity of their actual work to become prominent on social media so that they get easy donations, or their work is just to show on social media, but it cannot be said that all NGOs are the same.
I personally know NGOs like UMMEED in Banaras, Adi-Yuvaan in Gorakhpur and many others who just work for the welfare of others. They do publicity, and they also raise funds, but it all goes for welfare works like deaddiction campaigns, plantation campaigns, cleanliness campaigns, child education, cloth distribution, medical camps, etc. Some of the members are fully dedicated to these NGOs' activities. So, the generalisation of the generalisation that either all NGOs are good or all are bad is not proper.

Thankyou for your patience and time.
