Hamar Social Labs (HSL) onboards grassroots nonprofits on Web3.

Harnessing the capabilities of Web3, our goal is to offer sustainable, adaptable funding and capacity-building assistance to grassroots NGOs and their closely affiliated leaders. These leaders belong to and actively collaborate with the most vulnerable and marginalized communities throughout India.

Hamar Social Labs (HSL) utilizes a distinctive method to identify grassroots, community-centered, and underfunded organizations, emphasizing leaders who have close ties to vulnerable communities.

Anchored in the principles of Gender Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion, HSL prioritizes these factors in its sourcing and selection approach.

NGO networks operating throughout India recommend these organizations. These NGOs are evaluated based on three core criteria:

Leadership: Emphasizing individuals and boards with direct experiences within the communities they serve.

Community Orientation: Focused on program design and capacity-building that centers on the needs of vulnerable groups through training and collective efforts.

Community Vulnerability: Evaluating the communities served, emphasizing various intersecting factors such as gender, caste, geography, religion, disability, and socio-economic status.

The term 'Hamar' signifies 'Our' in several local Indian languages, reflecting the vision to support traditionally marginalized communities.

The team, located in Central India, comprises young and diverse individuals who share a common belief in the empowering potential of technology and the internet.

Our current projects include:

1. Gaon Wali : https://www.gaonwali.in/

Around 2200+ rural and tribal women came together & formed a company. The project model is to purchase fresh & pure raw material from women farmers of Chhattisgarh - A violence affected, forest state in Central India.

Gaon Wali translates to "Rural Women's" in english.

Processed & packaged in the manufacturing unit set up by the company formed by these rural-tribal women. This value added & finished product is being sold in the market at competitive prices.

Gaon Wali aims to provide the better cost of raw material to the farmers. These extra money usually goes the big industrialists. Gaon Wali aims to cut off those mediators & bring the money to the local community farmers.

Also, we want to present a pure, rich-quality and fresh products to the common people of India.

2. Mohri : https://www.mohri.in/

Mohri is an initiative to retain the diversity of our ancestral culture by illustrating myths, legends & folklore of a tribe as inferred by the local artists through their art.

We believe that they should get a chance to make a respectable living out of their craft.

We are furnishing them with a market for their craft where everyone across the globe gets to savour these folklores.

We plan an NFT Collection for Mohri, to represent different tribal art forms.

3. Chhapaak : https://www.chhapaak.com/
