Top NGOs in India which do not convert people!

Today in India around 20 lac NGOs exist as per 2009 data. Non-governmental organizations have played a key role in creating awareness and pushing sustainable development at local, national & international levels. Ideally, NGOs ensure the participation of the masses, empowering the deprived classes, offering services to society & doing some charity work for those who are in need.

There are millions of NGOs: whom to Donate?

There is a 600: 1 ratio of population to NGOs in India, But now there are growing doubts about the organic growth of NGOs in India, as is evident from recent activities of NGOs in India. Many NGOs are working as pressure groups, lobbyists, undeclared Political arms to target other political parties, unclaimed missionary & fraudulent conversion activity centers, development stalling agencies, etc.

Be careful and get into details – How your donations are being utilized :

Foreign funds have been used mainly for many anti-national, Christian conversion and development stalking activities in India in the recent past. According to then Prime Minister Shri Manmohan Singh -“The atomic energy program has got into problems because these NGOs, mostly I think based in the United States, don’t appreciate the need for our country to increase the energy supply”.

NGOs run by Teesta Setalvad and Medha Patkar (as reported by Francois Gautier ) also come under such activities of anti-national & development halting.

One 2009-10 report of the Home Secretary reveals that major donors from abroad are Christian missionaries & church sponsored NGOs, on the top spot among such donors is Gospel for ASIA INC, USA with Rs. 232 crores followed by Foundation Vicente Ferrer, Barcelona with Rs. 228 crores and another one from the USA with Rs. 197 crores.

There are many such church-sponsored NGOs involved in ‘conversion campaigns’ and they are doing this business by using many psychological traits mentioned below :

  • By adopting Hindu/Sanskrit names of NGOs like -Chaitanya Voluntary Service Organisation, Caruna Bal Vikas, Kalaiselvi Karunalaya Social Welfare Society, etc.
  • Christianizing Hindu cultural objects like idols, statues, names, festivals, etc.

Hence you must be very choosy to pick your choice of NGO to support & preserve Indian culture & cause.

Considering this in mind we have done some research to enlist the well-established Indian NGOs with good credentials, whom you can donate without any suspicion about   :

 1 . Belur Math ( Ramkrishna Mission )

There are two organizations working under single roof: Ramakrishna Math and Ramakrishna Mission. Founded by Swami Vivekananda (1863-1902), the chief disciple of Shri Ramkrishna Paramhansa.

The chief catalyst in this ongoing transformation is India’s ancient religious philosophy known as Vedanta. The Ramakrishna mission does not believe in conversion. The mission places utmost importance on personal spiritual unfoldment and selfless service. Ramkrishna Mission centers encourage adherents of different faiths to meet in a spirit of friendship and mutual appreciation, and to learn from one another without having to give up one’s own faith.

Ramkrishna Mission & Math activities cover different areas of human need and social welfare such as education, health, rural development, self-employment, women’s welfare, inter-faith understanding, moral life, spiritual guidance, and relief to victims of calamities.

In 2013-14 Ramkrishna mission had spent over Rs. 500 crore for welfare activities.

  1. Which of the NGO publish their audited accounts every year?
    How much funds received in a year and how much spent and to be spent next year?
    What is the number of beneficiaries every year/month for such NGO ? How much money-amount and percentage of funds received- spent on the leaders and admin. travel, phone etc ?

    I am afraid many of the NGOs in India are only for tax planning -get exemption from Income tax- shells to run highly profitable schools, colleges, hospitals etc. or to own large chunk of valuable land and other properties -may be owned by (covers for) politicians or other rich and well connected people.

    There are rules of ethics in governance and in fund raising for NGOs- who and how many follow such rules?

    With such more than two million NGOS in India, why still 600 million Indians are starving or live below poverty line and 400 million are still illiterate? why there is no drinking water and basic medical facility for these people ?

    NGOs also fight and have one upmanship races and here also we do not have a single world class NGO neither in quality nor in size .
