Why is Corporate Social Responsibility relevant for NGOs?

  Why is Corporate Social Responsibility relevant for NGOs?

   By Valentina

Non-profit organizations’ CSR can be considered as the purest form of social responsibility, since it is not simply a subsidiary activity, but rather their core life purpose.

CSR importance along the years has increased thanks to the necessity of demonstrating companies’ values to outside, contributing in the meanwhile to meaningful impactful sustainable projects that are able to positively shape communities.

The role of consumers is also crucial in this transition towards sustainability, since they are willing to actively support those brands that engage in fair practices.

Thus, always more often firms try to support nonprofits, making philanthropic projects more viable for those cashless organizations and creating long-lasting relationships among them.

But the most important reason why NGOs are crucial is that they are the means by which profit-oriented organizations implement CSR strategies and transform them from ideas into practice.

The worldwide recognition and support of NGOs’ initiatives is given by their strong, fast, low-cost role in the development of a better world, not only improving the economy, but also sustaining social justice, equality of genders  and quality of life. In order to do so, an active participation of citizens in decision-making processes is required.

In India NGOs are numerous and active mostly in health, education and rural development sectors, thanks to the financial support provided by the State, which is concerned about the social welfare of its citizens. These two entities, by working together hand in hand can ensure that millions of people, mostly children, are guaranteed with at least a basic level of education. 

As a result, they had a crucial role in the formulation of policies and laws favoring the poorest and most disadvantaged part of the society, especially in the fight against human trafficking, violence on women and poverty.

Through these rules, people become always more aware of their rights and roles in the community, as well as of the resources at their disposal. They are now more able to face taboos and fight against environment deterioration and pollution.

The input that voluntary, non governmental associations bring, both at country and global levels, encourages involvement, enthusiasm and cooperation of people.

Fortunately, in the last years, there has been an increasing engagement with these kinds of organizations, as both the Government and the market need the partnership of trustful, dynamic and responsible not for profit organizations, thanks to their link and interest for life at grassroots level. Thus, NGOs have quickly become the most useful and effective alternative agencies for development.
