Dasra's work is not just about connecting stakeholders, it is about working hands on with both philanthropists and social entrepreneurs to scale non profit organisations and social businesses by providing knowledge, funding, and people to help accelerate social change.

Knowledge - We have over a decade of expertise in the social sector in India. Our skills include undertaking in-depth research, developing effective scaling models, capacity building and developing management skills. We share our research and experiences with Indian Philanthropy Forum members and support social entrepreneurs through our executive education program, Dasra Social-Impact.

Funding - We match resources with needs by developing dynamic funding models for our donors. We bring together strategic financial resources through the Indian Philanthropy Forum and Dasra Giving Circles, and through Dasra Social-Impact help social entrepreneurs gain access to funds to enable them to build scale.

People - We bring the right people together to create change. We select the most innovative, scalable and high impact non profits and social businesses and employ experienced professionals to work hands-on with these entrepreneurs to help them think strategically and ensure their growth targets are met. Highly interested people from the corporate world, social sector experts, academics, government and philanthropists engage with us in discussions on philanthropy and funding.
