CSR Partnership FAQs

What is the typical duration of a CSR partnership? +
Most CSR partnerships run 12–36 months. River restoration programmes run 24–36 months because of the monitoring commitment. Prayaas learning centre adoptions are annual. We will not propose a duration shorter than what the work genuinely requires.
Can a CSR partnership cover multiple programme areas? +
Yes. A common pattern is a 'portfolio partnership' combining, for example, a Prayaas learning centre adoption with a Meer FM radio sponsorship. The Five Pillars Framework encourages cross-pillar coherence.
Can our employees visit the project sites? +
Yes, and we encourage it. Field visits are organised quarterly for CSR partners. Visits include community interaction (with consent), programme team briefings, and a structured walk-through. We do not stage photo opportunities — what you see is what is actually happening.
What happens if programme milestones are not met? +
We flag it — to your CSR team, in writing, as soon as we know. We do not hide bad news. Milestone slippage triggers a re-scoping conversation. We have closed programmes early when betterment was not materialising. Honesty is the only sustainable CSR policy.
Can a small or mid-size company partner? +
Yes. The Heritage walk + Guriya magazine programme starts at ₹6 lakh — accessible to mid-size companies. We have scoped programmes for CSR budgets ranging from ₹25 lakh to ₹10 crore. The conversation begins with your CSR focus and budget envelope.

Betterment, not compliance theatre.
