Functional Teams

State Committees

We are working on creating high-level State Committees in each state of India by selecting like-minded volunteers. This committee facilitates expanding our service and donor base, helping coordinate with various state agencies or corporations to mobilize necessary support by giving broad campaigns to our social cause across every state. The respective State Committee forms the City Unit of PARD INDIA in significant cities in the state.

District Committees

The District Committee heads all the Developmental Teams of our organization and directly implements Projects and Programs at the district level with close coordination with City, Mandal, and Village Committees. They are also responsible for expanding the donor base and raising funds across the district. Functionally, they are independent but administratively responsible to the Executive Committee.

Mandal / Block Committees

The Mandal/Block Committee heads all the Village Committees under their area and directly implements the Projects and Programs at the Mandal / Block level with close coordination with the Village Committees. Functionally, they are independent but administratively responsible to the respective District Committee.

Village Committees

The Village Committee plays a vital role at the micro level and implements projects and programs at the grassroots by associating with our beneficiaries – deprived children, their families, and local communities in the village. The Village committee typically includes students, youth, social activists, local leaders, volunteers, Self Help Groups (SHGs), etc., drawn from local communities by cutting the barriers of caste, religion, and gender differences. They play a critical role in building positive communities in their neighborhood by actively developing their village. The respective District and Mandal Committees support these Village Committees for effective functioning.
