Well , it seems this has become a throughly deserted thread which is an incredible shame so lets get some activity started here.

I understand that all us are either into MBA prep or into top B-schools but there is nothing and I repeat nothing more satisfying than helping out a needy.

I've been involved with CRY before but that was a long time back and think it's about time I got a bit involved again despite time constraints , so if anyones intrested then PM so we could meet and decide upon something.

I agree with u brother. That will give a feeling of satisfaction. Count me in. But who arranges for this?????. Please, anytime you all decide on something just let me know. I will certainly try to do my part.

hey guys..Count me in. i'd love to work for any NGO. but my only constraint is that of conveyance. since i put up in faridabad, which is close to south delhi, n m still in college so its a bit difficult. its gr8 u ppl started something like this. was looking everywhere for smthing like this.

i can go there on weekdays...n i'd prefer a place in south delhi.

Great JOB!!!

Hi Guys,

It's heartening to see so much enthusiasm here on volunteering, especially as few years back even i was going through the same phase but once i got started it has become a passion now. The following words that i write are primarily intended to guide you through this syndrome and also to gather support for an NGO (Sshrishti) that i am part of:

To be effective in this field
1. Act: Meeting and discussing a lot wont help. There is so much out there to be done that even if you are a misfit in an NGO for sometime, someone would be benefited, less or more. For Delhites there is a site called .:: Y O U T H R E A C H ::. which is doing a tremendous job in finding the right match, contact them asap.
2. Suitability: Choose an NGO closeby, and youthreach will do a good job here. Last thing you want is your noble intention to be awashed by inertia of travel.
3. Be regular: Do only those things that you can do consistently. For working guys dont opt to teach students, you are doing them more harm than good by making them switch teachers every week.
4. You are needed: Guys we all have tremendous opportunity to do, even with our load of work and studies. Because this sector is so underserved that even most basic help can aid a lot. For instance when i joined Sshrishti it took me 1 hour to teach staff there some basics like Ctrl F in excel, till then they were sifting through a 1000 row data to find phone no.s

In case any of you are in south delhi close to vasant kunj, i would gladly invite you guys to join sshrishti, please visit our site to find more http://www.sshrishti.org/...or contact me @ yogeshgoel1@gmail.com or @ 09899000564
We are doing a fundraising rock concert with euphoria and need all the young bright ideas to gather funds and organise the show. Thanks

Thanks for the insightful post , for the first time really there is a proper direction for us to go to in this regard.

I contacted pravah via the link give in the post and they wanted me to come over and talk more extensively about the pro grammes and the ways I could volunteer.

So if there is anyone else from south Delhi who wants to join in , then contact me from PM so we could go ahead together.
