Let your CSR truly change lives

CSR managers with a mandate to invest Corporate Social Responsibility funds in education face several challenges – choosing the aspect of education to invest into, finding reliable organisations who will use the invested funds well, and finally, measuring the impact of their investment.  Each of these challenges are complex; hence typically, they take a lot of time and effort to solve.

Skillveri’s proposition is that investing in Skill Development is an excellent investment of funds earmarked for Corporate Social Responsibility/education.

Why invest in Skill Development

 

Students in ITIs receive very little or no practical training required to get into the job market, due to lack of necessary & fundamental training equipment or shortage of resources. On the other hand, Industry requirement for skilled labour is constantly on the rise, and without adequate modern training, the students in ITIs are not equipped with the right kind of skill set that meet industry expectations.

We believe, Corporate Social Responsibility can play a key role in changing the livelihoods of young ITI students.

When it comes to philanthropic investment in education, most of the focus is at the school level. With a lot of activity now happening in this space, most donors/corporates who seek to make a difference struggle to find out if their contributions are having a measurable impact.

However, investing in the skilling of adult learners has an immediate and measurable effect on employability and can transform lives.

Companies with a focus on excellence find it a strong, future forward contribution, enabling the creation of a cadre of highly skilled industrial work force. By supporting the latest technologies for the training and skilling of workers, they show the way to the future.

Companies with a commitment to the national interest as part of the Skill India / Make in India missions of the GoI, can make a direct contribution to building the eco-system for manufacturing excellence in India. State-run educational institutions tend to lag behind in the adoption of new technologies and new ways.  They need visionary organizations to function as champions, leaders and change agents.

How our Program Works

Interested companies invest CSR Funds to buy and install welding/painting simulators in ITIs that service the requirements of a set of manufacturing companies in industrial hubs.  Skillveri’s team will partner the donor company’s CSR team end-to-end, making the process seamless and easy.  Skillveri’s team will identify a list of high potential recipients and organize the required interfaces between the Donor team and the receiving ITI team.  After installation, Skillveri’s team will also keep track of immediate usage as well as the long term impact.

Immediate Benefits:

Many companies with undeployed CSR funds have a year-end deadline to meet.  To help potential investors avoid last minute hassles, we have “early bird” schemes in place. As an incentive to  Companies that finalise their CSR investment decisions early, the early bird scheme gives cost savings of 12% and thus enables them to make a greater impact through their funds. A typical investment can be as low as 10 Lakhs for an entry level simulator package, or 25 Lakhs for simulators + actual equipment upgrade package.

We are a NSDC recognized company for Skill India Mission, and have prior experience of having worked with CSR Foundations of large organizations like Cognizant Foundation, Ambuja Cement Foundation, Maruti Suzuki Foundation, among others.
