CAP today,
occupies a unique niche, as a support organization for
all kinds of incorporated charities, including grant
making trusts & foundations, NGOs engaged in development
work and NGOs providing support to other NGOs. It has
remained focused on legal and regulatory matters pertaining
to incorporation, taxation, accounting and statutory
reporting.
CAP is not a funding organisation. Although, we conduct
useful and informative workshops and trainings to help
organisations to better their fundraising. CAP has also
published a useful resource book on the subject. (The
Art of Successful Fund Raising)
Also, CAP does not undertake any type of registration
work. We merely guide and assist organisations and individuals
with their paper work and registration processes with
different government departments.
CAP also guides and assists corporates with their CSR
(Corporate Social Responsibilty) initiatives often helping
them find credible NGO partners or guiding them with
due diligence issues. CAP has also helped companies
like Titan, Thermax, Forbes Marshal, Zensar, Atlas Copco
etc., set up their own corporate foundations.
