Abstract

The aim of this study is to advance the efforts of nonprofit organizations in achieving their missions. In the form of a case study, the paper discusses how this can be achieved by bringing together the resources of different nonprofit and for profit organizations that serve a common cause/mission. An endeavor is made for helping an eye care charity organization by impacting it in both a positive and sustainable manner. The effort reaches to various organizations related to eye healthcare in order to seek out the common cause they all are working for. It is found out that the more closely related the missions of the organizations are the stronger and more effective will be the resultant synergies of their collaboration. Although the work of this study is preliminary however it serves as a good model for any nonprofit to reap benefit from and significantly enhance its effectiveness towards reaching its goals. The research hopes that it can fundamentally advance and impact how social work is being done on a global platform.
