Few decades after the independence, not everything was going well with the country. India was still batting social evils like poverty, child labor and illiteracy. Things finally started to take a turn after NGOs came into limelight. The rise of non-governmental organizations or NGOs brought major changes in the field of social service. People who wanted to help could now reach out to the needy. But like everything in the system, the effectiveness of NGOs started getting affected by corruption and mismanagement.
But still, there is a fairly good number of non-governmental organizations that are working hard and committed to make a change. One of such associations is Karman Foundation. Karman is a non-profit organization which is sheerly dedicated to making lives better for the underprivileged sections of the society.
Karman Foundation was started by Namrata Tripathi in Noida, Uttar Pradesh. "The fact that all of our members come from humble backgrounds is what makes us different from others. You cannot fight social issues like poverty and illiteracy effectively if you have never had similar experiences", says Namrata.
The society works through a network of volunteers who keep a check on needy people around the area. Although, the association focuses on all sections of the society but children and elderly people are the age groups they specifically look out for.
