Parivartan "The Change"

What Parivartan "The Change" does

Parivartan 'The Change' is a youth-driven, non-profit society registered in Moradabad, Uttar Pradesh, India, founded on 16 October 2016 by Kapil Kumar. The organization delivers four interconnected social programs: Project Pa8shaala (free education and school enrollment for underprivileged slum children, including a 9-to-5 Day Boarding School and the Pa8shaala Community Education Centre); Project PUB / Prithvi Ki Umar Badhao (environmental conservation through river cleanup campaigns, waste management, and 32 Horticulture Waste Management plants); Project Panthini (women empowerment via menstrual hygiene awareness, sanitary pad distribution, and computer/sewing skills training); and Project Prayas (blood and eye donation drives, health camps, and relief activities). Additional programs include Sehyog (waste newspaper and scrap collection converted into funding), Pa8shaala on Wheels (mobile digital classroom), and The Change Shop.

The technology footprint is non-proprietary: the organization runs on a Zyrosite-hosted website, an online donation portal backed by CharityERP, three payment gateways (Razorpay, Cashfree, Easebuzz), and standard social media channels (YouTube, WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram). There is no disclosed mobile application, API, or AI/ML capability. Distribution relies on a registered volunteer network of 2,706 individuals operating across 44+ Pa8shaala locations and branches in Moradabad, Amroha, Dehradun, Nainital, Kashipur, Rampur, Bareilly, and Delhi, with direct community outreach as the primary delivery channel.

Revenue mechanics are entirely donation-based and not publicly disclosed. Funding flows come from individual online donations (Rs. 100 to Rs. 10,00,000 transaction range), CSR partnerships with named corporates such as Parampara Group, and the Sehyog recycling program (cumulatively 223,893 kg of newspapers, books, and scrap). Formal MoUs with SIDBI (Swavalamban Scheme), Let's Endorse, IIM Kashipur, and IIT Bombay extend the institutional footprint. Operational scale metrics include 4,283 children reached, 796 enrolled in formal schools, 1,218 blood units donated, 94,253 kg of solid waste collected, 17,155 sanitary pad packets distributed, and 443,222 cumulative direct outreach across all projects.

Direct peers

• Pratham Education Foundation: One of India's largest education-focused NGOs, running learning programs for underprivileged children and supporting school enrollment. Directly relevant given Pa8shaala's mission of taking slum children to formal schooling.
• Smile Foundation: India-based multi-thematic NGO running parallel programs in education (Mission Education), healthcare, and women's empowerment under a donation and corporate-CSR-supported model. Closely mirrors Parivartan's project portfolio and beneficiary segments.
• Make A Difference (MAD): Youth-driven Indian NGO that mobilizes volunteer networks across cities to educate underprivileged children, paralleling Parivartan's volunteer-led, education-first operating model and donor mobilization approach.
• Nirmaan Organization: Indian nonprofit focused on education, livelihood, and social entrepreneurship for underprivileged communities, with strong donor and CSR partnerships. Comparable holistic development approach and beneficiary base.
• Goonj: Large Indian grassroots NGO that similarly converts underutilized urban materials (clothing, household goods) into livelihood and education outcomes, with a donation-driven, volunteer-supported model across multiple Indian cities. Directly comparable in operational DNA and target donor base.
• CRY (Child Rights and You): Indian NGO primarily focused on ensuring underprivileged children's access to education and protecting them from child labor, closely aligned with Parivartan's Pa8shaala goals and northern India footprint.
• Akshaya Patra Foundation: Mid-day meal NGO serving millions of underprivileged schoolchildren daily in India. Comparable on the school-linked child welfare thesis (feeding + education), and on the high-leverage, multi-state operating model.

Emerging players

• Waste Warriors India: Indian environmental nonprofit focused on solid waste management, river cleanup, and community awareness. Directly comparable with Parivartan's PUB project on waste collection (94,253 kg reported) and Ramganga river cleanup campaigns.
• Barefoot College: India-rooted nonprofit training rural women and marginalized communities in skills (solar engineering, education, healthcare). Comparable on the 'skill development + women's empowerment' vertical that overlaps with Parivartan's Panthini program.

Broad incumbents

• Habitat for Humanity India: Established India affiliate of a global nonprofit with similar community-development, volunteer mobilization, and CSR partnership mechanics, but operates at significantly larger scale in housing/WASH rather than education focus.
