ECIF provides Corporates, Companies, Individuals and Funding Agencies with an end-to-end CSR plan that helps them undertake CSR initiatives with specific objectives to transform communities as well as fulfill their Corporate Social Responsibility goals.
We develop CSR strategy which will work as comprehensive plan for the Stakeholders viz. companies and individuals and funding agencies to design, execute, and analyze their corporate social responsibility initiatives including specific focus areas, program design, promotion and communication approaches, and evaluation procedures.
We will approach corporates to strategize their CSR planning for formation of CSR committee aim and objectives, budgetary requirements and including it in their Annual Reports.
Using a well-defined strategy for CSR Programme Planning, we ensure our Stakeholders’ requirements are fulfilled in the best way possible to their satisfaction. This tried and tested model includes core planning to deliver high-impact community solutions, on-ground implementation and management of community development interventions, and monitoring and measuring the impact of community development initiatives. This helps us undertake result-yielding CSR initiatives that have the power to transform society.
