danaVrddhi is conceptualized by danamojo with the support of ATE Chandra Foundation & Rohini Nilekani Philanthropies.
Problem
We see 2 main problems with existing training programmes that we seek to address through danaVrddhi:
Personnel Trained. Not NGO
There are many programmes that train NGO personnel in being Fundraisers. However they do not assist in NGOs in actually creating any fundraising muscle or build processes and systems that can actually be used by NGOs to drive fundraising.
Theoretical. Not Practical.
Most of these programmes are also theoretical in nature. In the short-term they are an expense for the NGO and do not result in any tangible gain for the NGO.
Solution
danaVrddhi with its LIFE Approach to Scale aims to solve both these problems over a 16-18 week structured approach to building fundraising muscle of NGOs. The deliverables of this programme aim to assist NGOs in not only developing artifacts but also processes and systems that are put into place during this programme. These are put into place, practiced and refined in an actual fundraising campaign that all NGOs will run together to actually experience fundraising.
The danaVrddhi programme aims to help NGOs achieve a 10x return on their expense for being a part of this programme thus turning the expense into an investment.

Objectives
The Outcome Of This Capacity Building Initiative Would Be

Programme Rationale
NGOs working directly with underprivileged sections of society have inspiring stories of human achievement and social transformation. These narratives are pivotal in inspiring, engaging, and retaining retail individual donors. They play a crucial role not only in fundraising but also in achieving social change by influencing the hearts and minds of individuals, communities, and society at large.
We want to empower a growing number of NGOs to collect donations from their supporters while maintaining consistent and convenient donor interactions. We firmly believe that this initiative can have a transformative impact on charitable giving in the country.
