 INTRODUCTION
NON GOVERMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS

Non-governmental organizations, or NGOs, are non-profit groups

that operate independently of any government. They are also known as
civil society organizations, as they represent the interests and values of
various segments of society. NGOs can work at local, national, or
international levels, and they can focus on a wide range of issues, such as
human rights, environmental protection, health care, education, poverty
reduction, and political participation.
The term NGO was first used in 1945, in article 71 of the United
Nations charter, to refer to organizations that were not part of the
government or the UN. Since then, the number and diversity of NGOs have
grown significantly, especially in the last few decades. According to the
World Bank, there are more than 10 million NGOs worldwide, with an
estimated annual budget of over $1 trillion.
NGOs play a crucial role in the development of society, the
improvement of communities, and the empowerment of citizens. They can
provide essential services, such as health care, education, and humanitarian
aid, that may not be adequately provided by the government or the market.
They can also advocate for social or political change, by raising awareness,
mobilizing public opinion, influencing policy, and holding governments
accountable. NGOs can also foster cooperation and dialogue among
different stakeholders, such as governments, businesses, academia, media,
and other civil society groups.
However, NGOs also face many challenges and limitations, such as
lack of funding, transparency, accountability, legitimacy, and effectiveness.
NGOs may have to compete for resources and attention, or deal with
corruption, bureaucracy, and political interference. NGOs may also have to
balance their autonomy and independence with their collaboration and
coordination with other actors. Moreover, NGOs may have to cope with the
complexity and uncertainty of the global and local contexts in which they
operate.
In conclusion, NGOs are important actors in the contemporary world,
as they contribute to the social, economic, and political development of
society. However, NGOs also have to overcome various obstacles and
dilemmas, as they strive to fulfill their missions and goals.

CREATURES BORN TO HELP FOUNDATION

community of selfless people who work for various humanitarian causes,
such as donating food and clothes, raising funds for education and life, and
celebrating festivals with the poor. CBTH stands for Creatures Born to
Help, which reflects the vision and mission of the organization.
The organization operates in several regions across India, such as
Srikakulam, Vizag, Kakinada, Rajahmundry, Guntur, Ananthapur,
Nandhyal, Kurnool, Rajampet, Mahanandi, Tirupati, Kadapa, Bangalore,
Hyderabad, and Mumbai. It also collaborates with other NGOs and
government agencies to serve the needy people and society. The
organization depends on donations and sponsorships from individuals and
corporates for its funding and resources.

CBTH Foundation works on various projects and initiatives that

focus on education, health, environment, and social welfare. Some of the
projects include providing free education and books to underprivileged
children, distributing food and clothes to homeless people, planting trees
and cleaning public places, and organizing blood donation camps and
health awareness programs2. CBTH Foundation also celebrates festivals
and special occasions with orphanages, old age homes, and slum areas,

 FOUNDATION VISION
The vision of CBTH Foundation is to create a society where
everyone is born to help each other. It is a vision that inspires the
organization to work selflessly for various humanitarian causes, such as
providing basic needs, food, clothing, blood, environmental drives, social
empowerment, and happiness to the people who lack them. It is a vision
that reflects the values and principles of the organization, such as
compassion, generosity, solidarity, and service.

The vision of CBTH Foundation is also to empower the youth to

become proactive, conscious, and responsible human beings who can
change the world for the better. It is a vision that guides the organization to
model good behavior for the youth by taking up social responsibility and
helping all those who are in need. It is a vision that enables the organization
to create a platform where the youth can feel a sense of belonging and have
all the necessary tools to take action. It is a vision that carves a pathway for
the youth that believes in a better tomorrow by giving a voice to unuttered
words, unaccepted relations, and unexpressed feelings.

The vision of CBTH Foundation is not just a dream, but a mission

that the organization pursues with passion and dedication. It is a mission
that results from the vision and gives joy to the organization. It is a mission
that evolves and grows deeper as the organization takes on key objectives
and challenges. It is a mission that requires hard work, struggle, stress,
opposition, and criticism, but also teaches the organization how much the
vision is worth and what it is willing to sacrifice for it. It is a mission that
never gives up on the vision, even when it faces difficulties and obstacles.

To say one is better is to misunderstand their purpose. You cannot

have a true mission without a vision. Your mission is the result of your
vision. The mission is the joy of pursuing the vision. The vision evolves
and grows deeper as the mission begins to take on key objectives, the
cornerstone of what it is all about. Vision in and of itself is just a dream.
The mission is the hard part— the process of struggle, stress, opposition,
detractors, and haters along the way as one moves toward his vision.

 ACTIVITY-1
FOOD DISTRIBUTION

In today's world, where regular access to three meals a day is commonplace,

the desire for a better life persists. However, there exist individuals who
yearn for a single daily meal, a basic need denied to them. Obtaining even
one meal becomes a divine blessing for such people, serving as a vital
lifeline offering nourishment and hope. For those facing starvation, food is
not just sustenance but a source of survival, countering the destructive
effects of hunger. The significance of food is profound, as it can determine
the line between life and death, emphasizing the urgent humanitarian
challenge of addressing global food insecurity.

As social servants (volunteers), we embarked on our mission, marking it as

our inaugural accomplishment. Together with our team, we identified those
in dire need and devised a budget to determine how many individuals we
could assist in one go. Through combined efforts and funds from our NGO,
we decided to provide food for at least 20 people. On August 9, 2023, we
executed our service plan, which proved highly successful. Witnessing the
joy-filled faces of those we helped brought immense satisfaction,
reaffirming the beauty of humanity. This experience served as a poignant
reminder of the potency of compassion and the importance of giving back
to our community. Our time spent serving and making a positive impact
was fulfilling, and we eagerly anticipate continuing these acts of kindness
in the future.

 ACTIVITY-2
AWARENESS PROGRAM

Awareness and awareness programs hold a pivotal role in society,

providing education on various crucial issues to individuals and
communities. They serve as the bedrock for informed decision-making and
proactive initiatives, fostering empathy, promoting inclusivity, and
combating ignorance, prejudice, and discrimination. The ultimate
significance of awareness and awareness programs lies in their capacity to
instigate positive change, mobilize collective efforts toward solutions, and
construct a more informed and compassionate society.

Driven by a collective
concern for our
community's digital well-
being, our group of
volunteers drew inspiration
to launch an awareness
campaign focused on digital
citizenship and online safety.
Recognizing the urgent need to empower individuals with knowledge and
skills for responsible navigation of the digital realm, our motivation
intensified with the realization of online vulnerabilities many face. United
by our shared purpose, we directed our skills into a well-structured
campaign utilizing social media, workshops, and informative content.

Observing heightened
awareness and the adoption
of safer online practices
strengthened our
commitment to creating a
secure digital environment
for all. On August 21, 2023,
we conducted an awareness
session on digital
citizenship and online
safety at Brilliant World
School, a private school. The
interaction session was highly engaging, leaving us with a sense of
responsibility as citizens contributing to society.

 ACTIVITY-3
PLANTATION

Plantation is imperative for cultivating a

sustainable future. Trees play a crucial role in
absorbing carbon dioxide, providing oxygen,
combating climate change, and supporting
biodiversity. They enhance air and water quality,
prevent soil erosion, and offer invaluable
resources. The act of planting trees is an essential
measure in preserving the environment, ensuring
clean air, and fostering a healthier planet for
future generations.

Plantation campaigns are not only profoundly

practical but also emotionally resonant. They
symbolize hope for a healthier planet, eliciting
feelings of responsibility, love for nature, and a
shared desire for a better future. Each planted tree signifies a small act of
kindness toward the Earth, stirring emotions of fulfillment, connection, and
optimism for a brighter tomorrow. As social service volunteers, we are
moved by the environmental challenges facing our communities, inspiring
us to address the plight of barren landscapes and affected individuals.

Confronting these concerns becomes a way to heal our wounded Earth,

embodying a profound act of love for the planet and all its inhabitants. It is
a heartfelt duty to ensure a better, more sustainable world for future
generations. On August 21, 2023, we, along with our remaining members,
undertook a plantation campaign and
successfully planted 10 teak plants in our
surroundings. The careful nurturing of
these plants has not only deepened our
love and responsibility for nature but has
also strengthened the sense of
brotherhood and teamwork among us.

This experience has become deeply

rooted in our hearts as a cherished
memory and a significant
accomplishment.

 ART SUPPLIES DISTRIBUTION

Supporting private schools, specifically Brilliant World School,

holds significant value for our volunteer group. Private schools,
with their structured environment and resources, provide a unique
advantage. They cater to students from diverse backgrounds,
making our contributions crucial in assisting those facing economic
challenges. Engaging with these institutions strengthens
community bonds, offering insights into local needs and fostering
connections with residents. One notable aspect is the potential for a
lasting positive impact, enhancing student attendance, academic
performance, and overall well-being. Collaborating with private
school authorities ensures sustainable assistance, guaranteeing the
continuity of our work.

On August 9, 2023, our

team of volunteers visited
Brilliant World School,
for a meaningful
engagement. We
organized a drawing
competition for
approximately 40
enthusiastic lower-class
students, showcasing their unending zeal. To boost their courage, we
provided prizes for the competition, creating an environment of happiness
and excitement. The remaining students received sets of art supplies,
including coloring books and chocolates, to encourage their creative
expression. This experience highlighted that a small step towards those in
need can bring about significant positive changes, impacting both them and
us. Our team members ensured the success of this initiative, once again
demonstrating their commitment as responsible citizens.
