Fast Forward India

Fast Forward India is a student-run Non-Governmental Organisation of IIT (ISM) Dhanbad. Ever since its foundation in 2007(and registered under the Regd. Act 21, 1988), FFI has been providing relentless services to the people in Dhanbad, and tackling social, economical and educational problems faced by the rural communities through its projects and initiatives. FFI's level of determination and zeal to eradicate social barriers have made it the most trusted NGO of IIT (ISM) Dhanbad. Not only this, with its evolution, FFI has now become a common term even for the people residing outside our campus. 4 distinct chapters operate under FFI- Bloodline, Disha, ESCAPE and Jagriti. One of FFI's prime chapter is BLOODLINE, started in 2007, aims to create awareness among the citizens in of the country regarding the importance of blood donation and provide donors to patients in need. Another project is DISHA, which aims to provide career sessions to students of different schools in Dhanbad and guide them to make a better future. At times students drop after 10th or 12th due to lack of knowledge, we provide them the right path to opt for suitable carrier options. English Speaking Course And Personality Enhancement, commonly known as ESCAPE, is a program that focuses on the children from underprivileged sections. This chapter intends to eliminate the communication barrier amongst masses from different sections of society and to instill within our students with enhanced speaking skills along with a pleasing personality. JAGRITI, the fourth chapter, was started with a vision to empower underprivileged students with computer education so that they can stand in this changing era. The chapter also provides education for those who seek employment in a similar field.
