BluePointe donates up to 5% of our annual net income to support various charitable organizations. Below are several non-profit organizations which we deeply respect and admire for their efforts in both our community and abroad:
American India Foundation
AIF is devoted to catalyzing social and economic change in India. The foundation was born out of relief efforts following the Gujarat earthquake of 2001, when they found an outpouring of support from Americans concerned about India's development. Their goal is to contribute to building an India where all people can gain access to education, healthcare and employment opportunities and where all Indians can realize their full potential. They hope to build a trusted bridge between the dreams and aspirations of individuals who care about India and those who are in need.
India Community Center*
The India Community Center was conceived as a place where every generation of the Indian Diaspora could find comfort in various facets of their culture, preserve and practice unique traditions and celebrate festivals and social milestones in a welcoming environment. It was also designed to be a center where people of other cultures can explore and experience Indian traditions and values.
India Literacy Project
The India Literacy Project was founded in 1990 in the US by a group of young non-resident Indians, with the mission of being "a catalyst for 100% literacy in India." The ILP works in partnership with local NGOs and networks in India to enable and support their processes of strengthening communities. The goal is to identify and address gaps in educational services and bring about systemic changes through advocacy.
Kiva
Kiva's mission is to connect people, through lending, for the sake of alleviating poverty. Kiva empowers individuals to lend to an entrepreneur across the globe, simply by browsing loan requests and donating from as little as $25 to the entire loan amount. By combining microfinance with the internet, Kiva is creating a global community of people connected through lending.
Maitri
Maitri is a free, confidential, referral non-profit organization based in the San Francisco Bay Area that primarily helps families from South Asia (Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka among others) facing domestic violence, emotional abuse, cultural alienation, human trafficking or family conflict. Maitri helps to foster self-reliance and self-confidence in its clients and ultimately helps empower South Asian women to make informed choices on the lives they lead.
