Abstract:

Different types of organizations are working in the private sector to make use of the resources. These organizations are known as non government organizations (NGO). Before World War 2 only government was considered to be the provider of all basic facilities to public. But time has changed and the concept of NGOs got popularity. In Pakistan the regular body of such organizations has been started in 1985. The present study was conducted to know thoroughly about nongovernmental organizations. Our main objectives in this study were to gauge awareness about the role of NGOs in improvement of capacities and for the welfare of masses.
