About: ProPoor’s mission is to empower NGOs, donors, and individuals by providing the tools to connect, and by facilitating the exchange of information.

Established in 1998, ProPoor is committed to the dissemination of information and promotion of sustainable development initiatives, in response to the needs of under represented and marginalized sectors of society in the South Asia.

ProPoor has developed a comprehensive Internet portal containing information about South Asian non-governmental organizations, funding agencies, events, projects, jobs opportunities in social development, success stories of individuals as well as organizations, and other relevant links.

ProPoor establishes an electronic forum linking nonprofits across South Asia to facilitate exchange of experiences, systems, administrative best-practices, material resources, and other valuable information.

Working with a small but fiercely dedicated staff, in less than five years, ProPoor has built a website that showcases the details of nearly 13,000 nonprofits across South Asia. ProPoor allows internet users to identify NGOs by name, region, or area of focus. It opens channels for benefactors to find projects to support and opens lines of communication among charitable organizations. In addition ProPoor contains detailed developmental news, donor appeals, project reports, and discussions.
