Volunteer Success Stories

Real impact begins with people. Our volunteers not only empower communities and activate policies, but also earn rewards for verified outreach.

From Awareness to Action

When the "Rural Finance Awareness Drive" launched in Lucknow, 35 trained volunteers reached over 4,000 farmers in just two weeks - explaining loans, subsidies, and insurance schemes in simple local language. Within a month, over 600 farmers registered under PM-Kisan and AIF. Volunteers were recognized for verified activities with Rs 1,150- Rs 1,600 per session.

“I never imagined my weekend volunteering could help so many families access real support.” — Priya Sharma, Volunteer Coordinator

Impact stories

Volunteer voices from the field

“Facilitating workshops in Bundelkhand helped 12 cooperatives digitise their records within a month. Not only was the Finnid team's support seamless, but I also earned Rs 18,500 for my verified interventions - a meaningful reward for grassroots work.”
“Weekly clinics with FPO leaders gave me a front-row seat to grassroots innovation. The knowledge pods are why I keep coming back - and the Rs 1,600 - Rs 1,900 honorarium per assignment keeps me invested in long-term change.”
