How To Start Volunteering?
Most people think that volunteering means going to school and teaching or working with slums or going and doing some health checkups in unhygenic places. It seems more like a serious affair which requires lot of commitment and saying no to all the cool things that you might do in life. Of course volunteering requires some amount of commitment, but it is not as boring as you may think. There are numerous fun ways to volunteer. Also voluntering does not necessary mean that you have to spend some fixed time every day or every week. There are opportunities available from one off volunteering effort to a weekly effort. Below I have tried to categorize some of the volunteering possibilities based on time you can spare. So if you are thinking of volunteering and dont know where and when to start, one of these could be your starting point. (Since I am from Bangalore India, most of the volunteering opportunities listed here are from Bangalore, or nearby areas. But I am sure such kind of volunteering exists in other places as well. So if you are looking for some such opportunity other than Bangalore do drop in a mail at goli-at-ngopost.org, or drop in the comment below, we will try our best to connect you to the right place)
I cant commit anytime, I want to volunteer once in a while when I get time.
* Organize a Blood donation camp in your office. This is the simplest thing to do. There are NGOs like Sankalp, you just have to give a call to them and they will do the rest for you.
* Collect toys from your building and hand them over to the Toy Bank. Toy Bank is an NGO which collects toys and distributes them to various orphanages and schools. You could also spend some hours on weekend in Toy Bank in sorting the toys, and gift packing them.
• Take children to parks/educational tours. Kilikili is one organization which organizes such events for special children. There are numerous schools like Ananya , who are looking for people who can take children for one day half a day education tour to some factory/park/museum.
I can spend couple of hours to spare on weekdays
• Spend sometime in gift wrapping toys collected for distributing to less privileged kids through Toybank.
• Extra coaching to Residential schools like Deena Seva Sangha, Nele.
• Spend some time with old people in some of the Old Age Homes in the city, Om Aashram, Little Sisters of the Poor and Anand Aashram.
• Take spoken English classes to community women for 2 hours a day whenever you are free at Makkala Jagriti.
• Spend time with special children at the Sunshine Centre for Autism. Work with children from the Shrishti Special Academy and Association for people with disability.
I can work only on weekends
• If you like teaching, Prerana could be the place for you. Prerana is an Institute which supports higher education of poor meritorious students along with counseling them for choosing their courses.
• Reading books for blind children, recording cassettes for Blind children. An organization called Samarthanam works on this.
• Vidyanikethan runs a program called "Teach the teachers" wherein you and go and teach the teachers on various different subjects
I cant travel I want to do something from home
• You can translate books or documents/books/comics which are not available in local languages.
• You can try to design projects for children which help then in understanding concepts better, like a project or exercise to teach multiplication or solar system. It can be anything. This is required by lot of NGOs who are involved in teaching.
• You can write for NGOPost.
I want to do something related to art, performing
• There is a group called WEMOVE, which does theatre solely for fund raising for various NGOs.
• You could make films for various NGOs, which would help them in their fund raising drives.
I am a NERD, and want to do something related to computers
• There are numerous NGOs who need help in setting up their websites, and putting some basic Content Management Systems in place. They are ready to do work, you just have to guide.
• Maintaining PCs and networks for NGOs. Becoming a System Administrator for some.
I want to do marketing for NGOs
• Numerous orphanges, childrens organizations, TB patients, make a variety of things, starting from Greeting cards to handbags to candles. Just pick some of them and put it at the office reception for sale. Or you can invite the people and they will come to your office and put the stalls (in lunch room??)

Thanks goli for coming up with such an exhaustive list. I will go through it once more later and try adding points (If I find any!)
This is a really useful compilation. I want to add a point for those who want to do their two cents 'virtually' - i.e. from home/office using the computer/internet.
- You could work on building or expanding the syllabus and teaching material of education programs which could be computer education, analytical reasoning, communication skills or life skills (money management, etc.). I know from a personal experience that this is a real value-add in many places.
Great compilation. I can add a few more organizations where one can volunteer. Again these would be based in Bangalore.
-If you have weekends , you can visit Balwadis supported by Akshara foundation. These are preschools for slum children aged between 4-6 and run by local volunteers trained by akshara. You can visit these balwadis on saturdays and spend some time with the children, playing with them, teaching.
-you can volunteer in Akshara's libraries. (www.aksharafoundation.org)
-Volunteer time at an old age home eg. Little sisters of the Poor on Hosur roads. All that these people want is some time from us.
-start collection drives in office/home. You can donate old books to hippocampus, old clothes at Missionaries of Charity, Rakum School for Blind, old newspapers to Association of People with Disablility(APD).
Another organisation is Karunashram.The website link is www.karunashram.com. It is related to animal welfare with opportunities for volunteering all over India
One can also conduct eye donation/pledging camps in the office/housing colony. NGOs like Sankalp [http://sankalpindia.net/drupal/?q=node/280] and Prabha eye clinic [http://www.prabhaeyeclinic.com/index2.html] would bear most of the burden of running the show.
I know a lot of NGOs in Delhi and Kolkatta. If anybody wants to do anything we can link them up
It would be great if you could add some of the names here. It would be great as people would get to know about this opportunities.
iltaja is an organisation which is based in east delhi,they work on health focussing mainly on polio and tuberclosis, also in educating children,
-New Beginning,Goonj,operation asha to name a few in delhi and in kolkatta its tomorrow's foundation,future hope and new beginning in kolkatta as well.
anybody who wants to volunteer in delhi or Kolkatta and get in touch with us and we will help in find a placement
Good one Goli. The Sattva link mentioned doesn't work... For everyone else, you may always visit www.ivolunteer.in to know about various opportunities available for various issues in Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai and Bangalore!!! Lots to do people. We need massive no. of volunteers to change the fortune of our country!!!
goli please can u tell me some pune based organisations for volunteering.
What a great list! I just had a couple of things I wanted to add. I live in Canada and volunteer once a week at a hospital with my dog. So for any animal lovers out there being part of a dog therapy program is a great way to spend your time. It really cheers up the patients and you get to spend time with your pet. The Canadian website is http://www.sja.ca/Pages/default.aspx?gclid=CKuf7py_u5cCFQHBDAodqEiZSg but I am sure there are different organizations who do this around the world.
Also, for anyone who wants to spend 2 weeks to a few months doing a one time volunteer program going abroad is a great way to boost up your resume, get some real experience in whatever you are interested in and have an awsome life changing experience. I run a small charity called Action Volunteer Alliance. We send volunteers to work in Nepal. Check our www.actionvolunteeralliance.com.
I put up in Mumbai(Chembur) and wish to volunteer over the weekends. Anything like helping people,teaching etc would be great. Could someone guide me how I can go about it?
I would get you in touch with Pankhudi, they do lot of work related to teaching and I guess you should be able to find some place near Chembur for volunteering. Additionally we are also writing similar articles for Mumbai, pune, Delhi and all, so that would also be up in some time.
Hi Rajesh,
This list is a good start for people who are yet to start on something good. Do we have a comprehensive list of all NGOs operating all over India?
I believe a lot of them are represented here and, well yes, in Orkut.. All I'd suggest for NGOpost is like give the users an option to submit the list of NGOs they know with their contact details. From NGOPost's end, all that needs to be done is to add teh details to the list of that particular state and internally, city / village.
This will be a major step forward and will attract not only NGOs, but also potential trusts and organisations who are looking for things to do. I don't know if this option is there elsewhere, but I certainly don't see a comprehensive list on the net. They are either incomplete or with insufficient data or questionable.
NGOs and Trusts on one side, a Volunteer network that will visit the places whenever they could on the other hand, we are looking at a major network here. This will help Organisations like CIOSA etc.
We don't have miscreants here at the site, :P, so this should probably work.
Thanks for the detailed feedback. We are trying to come up the comprehensive list of the NGOs, there are some technical challenges we are facing with the website to come and accomplish that.
The most challenging thing as you said is to figure out how to keep the information up to date and working, and just figuring out appropriate model for doing the same.
One good NGO database that I keep referring to is ProPoor.org, most times their contacts are up to date and they also keep updating their website quite frequently.
hello everyone here,v useful information i am searching for.can anyone let me know some ngos in indore as i wanna do something for good cause

CrockPot Barbecue Beef and Bean Sandwiches
Day 265!
Only 100 days to go. Except for that it's leap year.
Becky from Michigan emailed me her Cowboy Beef n Bean recipe to try. We really enjoyed it! She serves her shredded meat on hamburger buns or sandwich rolls, but I put ours on some lightly salted rice cakes. The meat is tender and juicy, and tastes great over rice the next day.
This is super easy---you probably already have all the ingredients in the house already!
The Ingredients.
--3 pound chuck roast (mine was frozen solid)
--1 yellow onion, sliced in rings
--3 cloves chopped garlic
--1 can (16.5 oz) barbecue baked beans
--2 T water
--1/4 cup prepared barbecue sauce (this wasn't in the picture, because I needed to go get some, and wanted the meat to start cooking)
--cheese, optional
--jalapeno slices, optional
The Directions.
You will need at least a 4 quart crockpot for this meal.
All I did was run the meat under hot water to separate it from the plastic bag. I plopped it into the crockpot, and turned it on low to begin to warm while I cut the onion and garlic. After I added them, I poured the contents of the bean can over the meat. Although Becky didn't, I added about 2 T of water to the bean can and squished it around with a fork to get the remaining beans and bbq slime.
Add barbecue sauce.
Cover and cook on low for 8-12 hours, or until meat shreds easily with a fork. I plugged our meat in at 5 am (I know. I was up early.) and we ate it 12 hours later.
Serve on rolls, buns, rice cakes, or over rice. Add slices of your favorite cheese and sliced jalapenos.
The Verdict.
We all really liked this meal. The kids ate their meat right off the plate with a fork, and Adam and I did the rice cakes. I loved the sliced jalapenos on top---there was a perfect mix of spicy tang and sweetness from the barbecue sauce. The meat was very tender and fell apart, just as I like it.
Thank you, Becky, for sharing!

I have a request for you... could you tackle a crock pot homemade cream of chicken soup??? I've got several qt bags of your crm of mush soup in the freezer- ready and waiting for winter casserole use.. and would love to do the same w/crm of chicken. esp now w/the cost of food, and the fact that homemade version would have to be much healthier... THANKS!!!

|Graham Organizations Targeted by IRS?
|Written by Steve Frank
|Wednesday, 15 May 2013 06:03
Did the net of the IRS, apparently targeting conservative groups, also include religious and service agencies? Franklin Graham says 'yes,' in a report making rounds on the Drudge Report. Franklin Graham, as president of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and the family's international humanitarian
organization Samaritan's Purse, said that the IRS notified the organizations in September that it was conducting a "review" of their activities for tax year 2010. Drudge, quoting the Politico website, says that with the IRS admitting it gave extra scrutiny to conservative political organizations, that Graham says he now believes that the review was part of an Obama administration effort of "targeting and attempting to intimidate us." The Politico story says the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association urging of voters to back "candidates who base their decisions on biblical principles and support the nation of Israel" during last year's presidential race was the reason why IRS agents visited the North Carolina offices of both Graham groups, the letter accuses.
"While these audits not only wasted taxpayer money, they wasted money contributed by donors for ministry purposes as we had to spend precious resources servicing the IRS agents in our offices," according to Franklin Graham. Graham said that "in light" of the IRS admission that it targeted tea party groups for added scrutiny, "I do not believe that the IRS audit of our two organizations last year is a coincidence – or justifiable."

LOWVILLE The town of Turin has filed suit against its former justice over a shortfall of more than $38,000 in the Town Court account.
The town is seeking payment of the shortfall, along with attorney fees, from former Judge James E. Chase, according to a state Supreme Court lawsuit filed Friday in the Lewis County clerks office.
After Mr. Chases resignation on Dec. 8, 2011, the amounts remaining in the Justices account was insufficient to meet obligations by the amount of $38,502.50, the suit states.
The town covered the shortfall using money from the general fund so that the new judge, Carry L. Kubinski, would have sufficient funds for bail and fines, it states.
The lawsuit claims Mr. Chase, who took office as town judge in August 1998, breached his statutory duty in handling public funds, his official duty as judge and his fiduciary duty to the town and public and performed his financial functions in a negligent manner.
A state comptrollers audit report released in August 2010 identified an apparent $37,199 shortfall in the Turin Town Court account from the prior year. The audit, covering the period of Jan. 1, 2008, through Oct. 27, 2009, showed that most of the apparent shortfall stemmed from bail money that had not been accounted for.
Mr. Chase did not run for re-election in November 2011 and resigned from the post a few weeks before his term was to expire, with an agreement to never be a judge again, as part of a deal with the state Commission on Judicial Conduct to close its case against him.
The commission complaint, filed in August 2011, included allegations that Mr. Chase had failed to regularly deposit court funds, failed to notify the commissioner of motor vehicles to order the suspension of the drivers licenses of numerous defendants and mishandled court funds, thereby failing to properly administer his court.
At the request of Lewis County District Attorney Leanne K. Moser, the Oneida County district attorneys office in late 2010 agreed to investigate the case for criminal violations. However, no charges have ever been filed.
Town attorney Mark G. Gebo, who filed the civil suit on the towns behalf, said he was unsure if the criminal case has been resolved, but he is not aware of any immediate charges pending.
The towns lawsuit stated that Mr. Chase failed to do monthly reconciliations on bank statements, account separately for bail money, use duplicate pre-numbered receipts for payments, keep record of deposits, maintain a complete and accurate accounting system, make timely deposits, maintain a list of partial payments or implement internal controls to properly account for funds.
The town maintains that Mr. Chase, as a longtime judge, should have had a better handle on the court finances and reported any problems so they could have been addressed sooner.
Part of the training for the justice included training on financial issues and the handling of accounts, the suit states.
Since the audit, the town over the past couple of years has taken several steps, including implementing an annual audit of the court account, to fix problems with fiscal oversight and accounting practices.

If your goal is to learn linux then you can do it by yourself.
First install Gentoo on a virual machine from minimal CD, then configure everything that just fits your needs. After that configure one of the most popular linux server applications like Samba, Bind, Apache with PHP and MySQL (ot maybe PostgreSQL or FIreBird or even better - MongoDB), any FTP server or anything like that. Also don't forget about IPTables. Forget about XServer, use only the terminal. Start learning shell scripting (bash).
If you get confused about anything you can aways ask in the forums or in the IRC channels. Linux have very strong community support, so feel free to ask about the things that you dont understand.
If you want to get a document that will help you on finding a job - then go to the college.
Actually I engourage you to go to the college with no matter what you want, except that you dont want to go the college. There you will develop your skills in IT. You will learn a lot of cool stuff. Working with Linux is only one part of that IT speciallist should know. Its not bad to learn more.
So if the distance is a problem then go to a college near you and learn Linux at home - that is the best you can do. Learn more and more!

POTSDAM - It resembles the plot of a science fiction movie: criminals can conceal their identity by altering their eyes.
A team of Clarkson University researchers is playing a role in outsmarting those criminals by testing and identifying cutting-edge iris recognition technology.
Clarksons Center of Identification Technology Research (CITeR), a National Science Foundation Industry/University Cooperative Research Center, is co-hosting the Liveness Detection – Iris Competition this summer.
Clarkson, along with the University of Notre Dame and Warsaw University of Technology, have invited developers of iris recognition technology worldwide to submit their devices for the competition. The researchers will test the effectiveness of each device over the next couple of months and present their findings at the IEEE conference on biometrics this fall.
The purpose of the competition is two-fold, according to Electrical and Computer Engineering Professor Stephanie Schuckers, director of CITeR at Clarkson. The competition provides manufacturers of iris recognition technology with third-party validation of their work. It also gives government agencies and private-sector companies interested in purchasing the technology comprehensive data to make informed decisions.
Schuckers is one of Americas top experts in biometric computer security. She recently testified before a U.S. House of Representatives Joint Hearing on the Current and Future Applications of Biometric Technologies.
In this field, we are one of the very few around the world doing this kind of thing, Schuckers said. We can get a good sense of how effective these emerging technologies are.
Each piece of iris-reading technology will take several hundred pictures of the researchers eyes. The researchers will try to trick the technology by periodically slipping on patterned contact lenses that alter the eye.
Devices that measure, monitor, and identify humans and human intent are needed for a broad range of commercial and security applications. Biometric verifiers, like a fingerprint, voice, or iris are increasingly securing more and more of the electronic world. CITeR performs research on emerging technologies, interdisciplinary training of scientists and engineers, and technology transfer to the private and government sectors through its affiliates.
We always try to be a step ahead of the criminal, said David Yambay, a Clarkson graduate student who is working on the project with Schuckers.

A fire that started late Sunday in Argyle Canyon has now jumped into another canyon and has moved from a small status fire to a much larger one. The fire has been dubbed the Church Camp Fire by the interagency fire agency.
"The report of it being a 100 acre fire this morning has really changed in the last four hours," said Mike Lefler, a spokesman for the fire team at the site on Monday evening. "It crossed over into another canyon and has approached the ridge to the west. It probably involves a few hundred acres now."
Later on Monday night the fire did grow, up to about 1000 acres. Some structures have burned, but teams cannot assess which have because the conditions are still too dangerous. High temperatures, low humidity (13 percent) and winds caused the fire fighters no lack of grief. A series of thunderstorms came through the area, and one or two produced enough rain to get the ground wet, butit wasn't enough to make much difference on the fire line.
Lefler was stationed just off Highway 191 at the Indian Canyon summit and was waiting for an action plan for dozens of new fire fighters who had showed up with engines and brush trucks from places like Roosevelt City, Altamont, Duchesne, Myton and other fire fighting units in the Uintah Basin.
The fire exhibited extreme fire behavior including crowning, torching and spotting. The fire is currently 0% contained and is burning in timber consisting of Douglas fir, Pinion Juniper, brush and grass. As of last report it (Tuesday morning) it is moving to the northeast. The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
Price residents woke up Monday morning smelling smoke and thinking it was from the fire in Sanpete County, but it was actually from the Argyle Canyon fire. The fire has forced the evacuation of 100-150 cabins in the area.
"I think we have everyone out," said Lefler on Monday afternoon. "The Duchesne County Sheriff's Department has been clearing people out but you can never be 100 percent certain."
The fire is being fought by more than 100 fire fighters and two helicopters, four single seat air tankers, 8 engines, 2 water tenders and 2 bulldozers. A large jet air tanker also made one pass but Lefler said that would be the only one for today because "they are committed elsewhere."
But later information spelled out that the plane may return. The DC-10 (VLAT, very large air tanker) can drop up to 11,000 gallons of retardant or water on a fire at one time. This is four times that amount any other tankers in use in the United States can dump. The plane is out of California but can only be filled with materials at a few bases. The plane that was used Monday was refueled and resupplied in Boise, Idaho. It was the first time this large of an aircraft has been used to fight a fire in Utah. It also has to have a special lead plane that is trained to do the flight with the DC-10 to lead it into areas on the fire.
"I saw it come in low over the trees," said the driver of a fuel transport truck from the Uintah Basin that was on site to resupply fire crews equipment. "It came in and it was a site to see." While the plane is in use in the United States tests in Australia where it was considered for use in 2010 led officials there to be concerned about the amount of material it dumped all at once. They feared that it drops so much that it could injure people and damage structures.
Crews in Argyle Canyon are fighting to keep the fire away from as many structures as possible and to keep it from approaching Highway 191, a vital energy route from Carbon County to the Uintah Basin.
A Type 2 Incident Management Team has been ordered and expected to take control of the Church Camp Fire at 8:30 a.m. Tuesday morning.

Inter-Cultural Communicative Competence
The Inter-Cultural Communicative Competence, also known as "IC3," was crafted by Dan Wessner, former associate professor of international and political studies.
IC3 was launched in September 2005, after a year of planning, and concluded following the 2008-09 academic year.
Program concepts and lessons were focused on the following themes:
- Inter-cultural – linking students across all continents
- Communicative – teaching diverse languages and just community change
- Competence – expanding communities of learning and empathy
Unique focus and history
The IC3 program consisted of hundreds of lessons delivered long-distance to diverse cohorts of students and was designed to include interacting with and learning from students at two universities in Vietnam. Wessner arranged for EMU students in particular to converse by computer with Vietnamese students on a regular basis at An Giang University and Can Tho University, both in the Mekong Delta.
Wessner drew from his earlier experience as a MacArthur Foundation Fellow in Vietnam and his connections with Mennonite Central Committee personnel serving at An Giang University. This collaborative learning was augmented by Mr. Tran Quoc Thang and Ms. Nguyen Hoang Bich Ngoc, two Vietnamese students in EMU's master of arts in education program.
About the IC3 student experience
As one advanced through the curriculum, developmental and cultural questions recurred, but with greater complexity. As students gained a greater fluency in another's language, they returned to familiar development concerns, and shared with their colleagues in another land a deeper articulation of their "best answer" to shared development challenges. One of Wessner's goals with this lesson structure was to cultivate a culture of empathy and understanding across cultures.
The 10 chapters of each level of study address: identity, water and food security, primary and reproductive health, education, poverty reduction, economic renovation at home, regional and global trade, development partners, art and culture, and globalization. Gender-related questions attach to these development concerns within each chapter and at each level.
In addition, the program's "blended learning" courses introduced a lifelong process of combining community-based knowledge, classroom teaching and interactive web-based instruction.
