Philanthropy
Indias giving in 2006 was $5 billion or 0.6% of GDP versus $300 billion (2.2% of GDP) in US Currently 127,000 millionaires in India; expected to double by 2015 India has the worlds 12th largest HNI population and over 40% want to increase their donations
Non Profits
3.3 million non profits in India, only 500 with budget > $100k and very few reach > 5,000 people Only 30 have a $5 million+ budget Organizations lack managerial skills and focused plans needed to scale Less than 3% measure their impact in a robust manner
Dasra bridges this gap by connecting and enabling both philanthropists and social leaders
Structural challenges such as lack of accountability and awareness causes this capital pool to be under-tapped
Seemingly large sector, but lacks scale, quality and transparency, hence impact and funding is far below potential
