Goal of this blog and website by the same name

So why am i writing this blog supported by a website by the same name ???

We often don't do, since we don't know what and how to do 

1) can we share stories of inspiring philantrophists, some famous, some common Indians like you and me and get inspired and inspire our children ? would love to hear what good work is being done. In my blog and website, I aspire to have a tab to share these stories in a fun and engaging manner

2) can we share stories of how charity can be used as a parenting tool to make our children more "grateful and humble". Can we share specifics - names of ngos and types of activities we can do with our children and time commitments and budgets of those activities ? In my blog and website, I aspire to have a database of ngos in various cities, activities and budgets and comments on what the experience was like, we can learn from each other

3) can we share stories of how charity can be a great employee engagement tool in various companies  to install a sense of "pride and belonging and bonding". In my blog and website, I aspire to share stories of what various companies are doing so we can replicate

4) if we want to donate for a special occasion, a birthday or just any day when we are feeling grateful and giving back, can we have a database of credible ngos and a laundry list of their financial needs sorted in an ascending or descending order of price? In my blog and website, I plan to publish such credible ngos and their financial needs starting from Rs 500 to 5 lakhs, every drop in the ocean counts!!

I like to keep things simple
too much data and too complex data is overwhelming
can we have a blog and website that "keeps it simple"
easy to read and navigate data and not too much data so that we can get what we are looking for quickly and focus on "execution" more than planning ?

the journey has begun, lets wait and watch how it unfolds, i am not afraid of failure and shutting this down if it doesn't work out but i hope it does and we are able to mobilise resources of millions of lucky indians to do good for the not so lucky indians by merely doing one thing "providing a simple and credible database to match the needs of needy with the resources of the kind....wish me luck :)
above is the best case scenario
Worst case scenario - no one really has the time or cares to read the blog and website but what a fantastic time my son (co-founder) Vir and I have had exploring and writing about these ngos, special friends we meet from these ngos, philanthropists, social events -  if this journey makes him a better human being - MISSION ACCOMPLISHED
