CSR funding is one of the biggest opportunities for Indian nonprofits —

but most NGOs never access it because they lack:


Professional proposals


Proper documentation


CSR-aligned project planning


Corporate communication skills


Credible online presence


Compliance readiness


A clear partnership strategy



This session helps you understand exactly how CSR works, what corporate decision-makers look for, and how your NGO can build long-term, trust-based relationships with companies.


You will learn the complete CSR collaboration framework, including readiness, communication, proposal building, and outcome reporting.


This is a practical, industry-specific session designed especially for small and mid-sized Indian NGOs.
