Despite India’s recent economic growth, poverty and its attendant maladies remain widespread there. The need for private development funding remains urgent, particularly now that many foreign governments are reassessing their international aid priorities. Yet many donors are hesitant to make social investments in India without robust and transparent mechanisms to ensure that their money will be used as intended. Enter the Global India Fund, which is creating the infrastructure to channel philanthropic investments to nonprofits with a proven track record of organizational effectiveness, transparency, and accountability. It carefully screens Indian nonprofits so that donors can invest in their work with confidence – secure in the knowledge that their contributions will do the full measure of good.
