The IDRF Approach
Provide a platform to Indian Americans to fulfill their dream of Giving back to ‘the land of their ancestors’. We work with NGOs spanning from Jammu & Kashmir to Tamil Nadu and Arunachal to Gujarat that have established track records and are approved to receive funds from the USA.
We provide flexibility to Donors:
- Donors can pre-select projects or causes they want to support.
- Donors let IDRF select projects based on our focus areas and selection criterion.
- Donors have multiple ways to donate
Project Selection Criterion:
IDRF’s evaluation and monitoring processes ensure grants are awarded to only those NGOs that meet the following criteria:
- Managed by dedicated people with low administrative overheads Demonstrate successful track records Maintain financial accountability and complies with local government laws and is approved to receive funds from the USA Serve people regardless of religion, caste, or creed.
- Demonstrate successful track records.
- Maintain financial accountability and compliance with local government laws and is approved to receive funds from the USA.
- Serve people regardless of religion, caste, or creed.
Furthermore, IDRF disburses funds to these NGOs on a project basis, channeling donors’ money for the most effective and efficient use. Nearly every project is co-financed by the local NGO together with the beneficiaries, with the ultimate goal of being entirely self-sustaining.
