Support of different non profit organisation in India for the needy

In a country like ours, which is so diverse in all fields, the people, even after trying their best, working all day, have not been successful in bringing the entire population of its citizens above the international poverty line. Most Indians, especially in the rural areas do not even earn the minimum wage per hour in the US, despite working the entire day. Savings, investments and expenditure on education etc. does not even come into the picture for such people who do not have basic amenities. They require employment in order to earn and strive through their lives. Reliance Foundation, A Non Profit Organisation in India, with their initiatives, has emerged as the saviour for such individuals.
One of the top most companies of the world, RIL has been actively participating in CSR activities, in order to cure problems in India, such as that of illiteracy, unemployment and health issues. One of the other major fields in which they’ve contributed, is education. Every year, Dhirubhai Ambani Foundation awards SSC merit rewards and undergraduate scholarships to the first three meritorious students and one physically challenged student securing highest marks from each of the districts of Gujarat and Union Territory of Daman, Diu and Dadra and Nagar Haveli at the annual SSC and HSC examinations of the state boards and 10 meritorious students from the state in the merit order list prepared by the CBSE, New Delhi, for secondary and senior secondary board examinations each, popularly known as the Dhirubhai Ambani scholarship, which is affiliated to one of the most prospering non profit organisations in India.
Many a time, education is not given to those who truly deserve. Someone, who is distracted and unwilling to study get luxurious treatment in the most renowned colleges in the country, whereas someone who wants to study and build a life, does not have enough fund to enrol for primary education. To sort out this gap, being a service-provider to the needy is the reason why such scholarships are a boon to the under-privileged. Scholarships indirectly help the universities as well, since they can later boast of rich alumni, when these students turn out to be successful investments of theirs.
The question thus arises, what is the role and responsibility of such organisations? Even though they are not compelled to operate, their roles and responsibilities are self decided and self administered. Such organisations only strive to give back to society and are typically not for anything, but social responsibility. A non profit organisation in India is thus, like an angel for the underdeveloped parts of the nation as well as those who are needy.

Companies should be judged by their end-users based on a score of their corporate social responsibility, which is the only way they will be encouraged to do better. Some companies do it by will, whereas some companies do it as a prestige. Reliance Foundation, A Non Profit Organisation in India should be considered as a yard-stick for other Indian MNCs to follow, helping India gain success and be competent enough to fight at a global level.
