PonsGroup Organization

PonsGroup Organization is a non-profit organization. It is determined to share knowledge, its primary resource thereby enrich the nation.

Ponsgroup took up its initial form by a handful of energetic, motivated and committed software professionals from Banglore, INDIA and California, USA in 1999. Its dream was to build a society in India with equal opportunity to all, empowered by Education, Employment and Technology. This group of volunteers believed it could contribute towards the same by providing resources in it best possible way to those who either lacked or had fewer resources. In 2004, this voluntary gathering with vigor and zeal got re-launched as a Non-Profit Organization.

Their motivation is derived from our own experience during the course of education and job search, and from whatever they currently see in their society. A society severed as rural and urban. There are those deprived of even basic education, there are those who have education but with no guidance to choose a career or find an employment. While there those privileged to best education, choices of career and vast employment opportunities. There are those farmers who feed the nation but with no food for themselves. There those with no basic health care and sanitation while are those affording the best of health care and good sanitation. And the cruelest fact is the apathy of the elite literati and of the politicians towards the lesser-privileged and underprivileged fellow countrymen. The cynicism that nothing best can happen to our society must be de-rooted from minds of those it rests.

Their commitment is derived from their strong desire to wipe out any such differences among the people from the rural and urban India in terms of socio-economic, technological and educational resources. And from their dream to see India as a developed nation. Sharing knowledge, which is their primary resource and there by enrich the nation, could do this. It's not just act of kindness but a responsibility to contribute towards the development of their nation.
