Colleagues describe them as "Prashant's passion for disrupting ideas is infectious. At GiveChange, he was able to motivate a group of volunteers to self organize and build a social giving platform from the ground up. Prashant doesn't just come up with great ideas, he is rigorous in proving them. Through a variety of techniques and tapping his network, he is able to provide a good indicator in the likelihood and size of success for any given idea. At GiveChange, Prashant connected and partnered with Charity Navigator, the largest Charity Evaluator. He also worked with contacts in San Francisco's City Hall to network with local businesses in order to provide discounts and deals through the GiveChange Venue Network. Lastly, Prashant did a great job managing the non-profit's finances and legal aspects. It was a pleasure and invigorating to work with Prashant. I wish him all the best!" and "Prashant has dedicated the last year to not only make GiveChange operational but to set the stage for its widespread success and impact. His ability to design and drive the development of a non-profit startup from concept to market has been truly remarkable. He has inspired, recruited, and orchestrated a team of volunteer developers, designers, and finance planners, by selling the promise of his vision for a contemporary model of a web-based philanthropy, one that targets the “blue ocean” of socially and politically active communities of youth. I wholeheartedly endorse P on his mission to GiveChange, as I believe he is endowed with the insightful and enterprising sensibilities of a much more experienced entrepreneur. Cheers!"
