Here is yet another astonishing story of women social entrepreneurs in the lockdown. Trishla Pareek and Divya Singhal are two Chartered Accountants who registered a nonprofit and crowdfunding platform ShareALittle,<\/em> to help connect NGOs to potential donors during the 2020-2021 lockdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Idea <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
On January 18, 2018, Trishla Pareek and Divya Singhal became Chartered Accountants and soon landed their first jobs in Mumbai. Trishla pursued Financial Due Diligence at the Big 4 and Divya, Equity Research at a broking house. Since their offices were only 10 minutes apart, they rented an apartment to live together. With continued interactions, it became evident that both girls wanted something more than just jobs. And very soon, the opportunity presented itself in the form of a pandemic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They were both ready to help people in need. But one proverb kept haunting them, Give a man a fish, and he will eat for a day. Teach a man how to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime. <\/em>The very phrase initiated the idea to set up their platform – ShareALittle. <\/em>The platform focuses on causes where the funds raised empower, in some way, the recipients to build an independent life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In India, 50% of Indians still live precariously close to the poverty line. It implies that approximately 650 million Indians, earn an income equivalent to almost INR 1,400 (USD 20) a month and need direction to improve the situation. Trishla and Divya thought the only way to do it was to get the empowered people to empower others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe saw that people were willing to help others in need but did not always do so because of the lack of transparency and general distrust in whether the contribution would reach the right person,\u201d<\/em> says Trishla.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And so, an idle idea shared by Trishla and Divya, who became friends at the age of 10 at Welham Girls\u2019 School, a boarding school in Dehradun, turned into a forceful platform. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
