The holidays were about to begin. Saaket and Salil Jajodia from Bengaluru wanted to do
something useful. They were looking for opportunities to do some volunteer work with
an NGO. After spending hours searching for information on the internet, making phone
calls, and even visiting NGO offices, they were not happy with the results of their efforts.
Saaket and Salil talked to many classmates and others. They too had faced similar
obstacles --- there was hardly any information about volunteering opportunities --- so
they had just given up. The boys wanted to help, but where would they get the
information they wanted? There had to be a better way.
The boys began brainstorming a method of collecting information about NGOs
and their needs. The information once collected, would be shared so that volunteers
could find NGOs that needed their help. The volunteers could then offer their services to
such NGOs.
This presented an opportunity for them to create Donate My Time (DMT), a
mobile app and web-based platform designed to help connect volunteers with NGOs.
Initially the idea was to create a simple spreadsheet (like an Excel sheet) with all
the information of the various NGOs and their contact details. As their understanding of
the needs of NGOs and volunteers grew, additional features were added to make the
process easier for both the NGOs and the volunteers.
