Non-profit organizations or NGO's play a key role in the development of any community and society. They are also a source of major employment. In the US alone, there are more than 1.5 million registered non-profit organizations employing over 13 million people* while India has over 3 million such organizations. These organizations generally face harsher growth and management challenges than for-profit enterprises. In the current economic climate, there is an increase need to raise funds while at the same time keeping organizations lean. Some of the key challenges include: sustainable financial models, governance, growth/ marketing, service excellence, volunteer management, and leadership. At DinarStandard, we are principally committed to strengthening and growing non-profit organizations that have strong human development impact. Our current area of expertise is Muslim community related non-profits (Islamic community centers, education institutions, charity/zakat management organizations, and Waqf/ endowment foundations.)
