Grass Roots Initiatives PDF Print E-mail

If you are just thinking about building an NGO. We can help you too! We have a place for you to create your own on-line groups, your own Organizatoinal Description and a plan for others to learn how to find you and for you to find them. It's all about connecting the dots.

 

What do we mean by Grass Roots Initiatives?

If you're not familiar with the term, what we mean is that we like to develop initiatives from within the community of needs. Far too often, solutions to problems come in the form of one group attempting to solve the problems of another group without really understanding the needs of the other group and without allowing them to use their skills to find their own solutions. Our goal is to help you in your community to solve the needs that are surround you. There are enough challenges in the world that we don't need to go very far away to find them. 


Do we support long range Initiatives?

Yes, of course. There are situations, in the world where, by no fault of their own, people find themselves in difficulty and are unable to resolve their challenges independently. So they look to their neighbors in other countries for assistance. But we respect the capabilities of our friends in other places and recognize their capacity to solve their own challenges in their own way provided that they have the means to do so. We strive to do everything necessary to provide the means and training so that they become self-sufficient. 


Do we support Aid Initiatives? 

Some of our Partners might. We encourage all NGOs to participate. However, our goal is to help communities to work together while becoming self-sustaining. As we all learn together, we believe that it will benefit others on the ground.
