        • Ensure all fundraising and partnership activities are tracked and integrated with Sahamati's overall mission.
          • Compliance & Risk Management
          • Stay abreast of India's CSR regulations under the Companies Act and ensure Sahamati's full compliance in all fundraising efforts.
