Question ID: 284180
I would like to identify NGOs working in Mumbai or in any part of
Gujarat that focus on poverty alleviation among poor families. I need
contact information, including a person's name and the organization's
telephone, email, and/or web url if possible.  

I am interested in Indian NGOs only, not in international NGOs that
work in India.

I am especially interested in NGOs that have projects which focus on
families, working with several members of a client family. This would
be similar to the approach of some social work agencies.

I am not looking for NGOs that focus mainly on technology transfer or
on community infrastructure or on instutions such as schools or
clinics or orphanages.  (I laud such organizations, but that is not
what I am looking for now.)

I am looking only for NGOs that are working now in either Mumbai or
Gujarat. If the NGO also works in other parts of India too, that is
o.k., but it must have activities in Mumbai or Gujarat.

I hope the results of this query will be a list of at least 10 to 20
NGOs and will provide contact information for each one, as well as a
brief (one sentence) summary statemetn of the NGO's mission.

If the reply can be formatted as a WORD table or as an Excel
spreadheet, that would be good (but not manditory).
