MP Manish Tewari Launched India's First Verified Volunteering Platform
Leeche Platform Addresses Certificate Fraud and Coordination Gaps in India's Volunteering Ecosystem
Chandigarh 19 January ( Ranjeet Singh Dhaliwal:- Member of Parliament Manish Tewari will inaugurate Leeche, a digital platform designed to bring transparency and accountability to volunteer coordination in India. The launch event will feature a panel discussion on challenges facing NGOs and volunteers, followed by CSR awards recognizing organizations demonstrating exemplary social impact.
India's volunteering sector currently operates through fragmented coordination systems like WhatsApp groups, manual spreadsheets, and informal records. This leads to verification challenges and instances of certificate fraud. Students seeking verified community service hours for college applications often face documentation gaps, while NGOs struggle with administrative burdens and limited visibility beyond their immediate networks.
"Volunteering is fundamental to civic engagement, but without proper infrastructure, impact remains difficult to measure or scale," said Sumeir, founder of Leeche. "We're not building another donation platform. We're creating verified infrastructure for time-based contributions where attendance is confirmed by organizations, not self-declared."
Leeche connects volunteers with NGOs through a structured workflow. Organizations publish opportunities in a public directory with verified details, volunteers register for events aligned with their interests, and service hours are digitally confirmed after participation. This creates a permanent, transparent record that schools and institutions can trust.
The platform addresses needs across multiple stakeholders. NGOs gain simplified volunteer management and increased credibility with institutions. Volunteers build portable service records for academic or professional use. Schools access reliable verification for community service requirements. CSR programs can measure civic participation with greater accountability.
"Digital infrastructure can strengthen social ecosystems when designed with transparency and verification at its core," said Sumeir. "Leeche treats time as a measurable, respected contribution and operates on three principles: time over money, verification over self-reporting, and transparency for all stakeholders."The event will conclude with high tea and networking, providing an opportunity for NGOs, volunteers, schools, CSR leaders, and institutional partners to engage directly. Support for the initiative includes backing from Shail Sachdeva of the National Commission for Minorities.
