FULCRUM - Capitalising CSR

Government of Sikkim Signs MoU with FULCRUM - Capitalising CSR to Establish Dedicated CSR Help Desk at Gangtok.   In a significant step towards attracting CSR investments, the Government of Sikkim has partnered with “Fulcrum – Capitalising CSR”, to establish the first – ever dedicated CSR Help Desk in the Northeast region.   This helpdesk at the first border State of India will serve as a one – stop solution for corporates across India, helping them to identify impactful projects that align with Sikkim's and NE’s developmental priorities.   Despite being highest per capita income state in India, Sikkim ranks among the states with the lowest CSR investments due to its limited industrial presence. Sikkim received ₹36 crores under CSR in 2022 – 2023, Fulcrum through CSR helpdesk aims to increase this amount considerably.   Fulcrum believes that CSR departments should adopt “Look North East” and “Act North East” Policy to support GoI and the locals. #CSR #Helpdesk #CSRInvestment Government of India karma bonpo Parthesh Vyas Arun Marette
