SKILL MARATHON
Skill Marathon is a unique 'Done in a Day' model of volunteer engagement, where volunteers and NGOs come together on the same platform to brainstorm and work on several NGO needs. As the name suggests, it uses the unique marathon model to leverage competitive spirit of participants creating a highly productive volunteer environment to achieve maximum social impact in a limited time.The volunteers finish and handover the completed projects to the concerned NGO on the same day. Skill Marathon gives an opportunity to volunteer to see the live impact and effectiveness of their efforts. Not only this, it provides a unique platform for a long term volunteering opportunity with the NGO. Since Pro Bono is the most effective way of volunteering, Skill Marathon hits right on the target to serve the needs of both the NGOs and the volunteers.
