However, they often face challenges in terms of bandwidth and resources which impedes their potential and impact.<\/p>\n

Traditionally, the Indian development sector depended on large corporations, multinationals or international grant making institutions for their major funding, but these were often out of reach for local social initiatives. However, with progressive policies, a rising middle class and the CSR mandate, several new doors have opened for community based organisations within the country.<\/p>\n

Sarvodaya Global Jan Welfare & Development Council Empowering Grassroots programme is designed to help such grassroots social initiatives become locally sustainable, without dependency on foreign resources. Aligned with Government of India\u2019s \u201cAtmanirbhar Bharat\u201d mission, Empowering Grassroots helps CBOs to become more efficient, scale up their welfare activities and enables them to tap locally available resources to ensure long term sustainability of the social projects.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section][vc_section full_width=”stretch_row” woodmart_stretch_content=”section-stretch” css=”.vc_custom_1771669175949{background-image: url(https:\/\/sarvodayaglobalcouncil.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/bg.png?id=10279) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}” woodmart_css_id=”6999866561a36″ responsive_spacing=”eyJwYXJhbV90eXBlIjoid29vZG1hcnRfcmVzcG9uc2l2ZV9zcGFjaW5nIiwic2VsZWN0b3JfaWQiOiI2OTk5ODY2NTYxYTM2Iiwic2hvcnRjb2RlIjoidmNfc2VjdGlvbiIsImRhdGEiOnsidGFibGV0Ijp7fSwibW9iaWxlIjp7fX19″ mobile_bg_img_hidden=”no” tablet_bg_img_hidden=”no” woodmart_parallax=”0″ woodmart_gradient_switch=”no” woodmart_box_shadow=”no” wd_z_index=”no” woodmart_disable_overflow=”0″][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”How We Empower CBOs” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:45|text_align:center|color:%23172645″ use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″]\t\t\t

Empowering Grassroots<\/h3>\t\t\t\t\t\t
<\/p>\n

You don’t need a title to lead. You don’t need a budget to organize.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Grassroots power is simply people who care showing up. It’s checking on your elderly neighbor. It’s speaking up at the town hall. It’s sharing a resource with someone who needs it. The work that doesn\u2019t make the news. The hours spent making phone calls. The flyers that got rained on and had to be re-printed. The meetings where only three people showed up\u2014but those three people were the\u00a0right<\/em>\u00a0people.<\/p>\n
