college classes about different ways in which he could serve this society, he came with a brilliant idea which
sparked the birth of NgoFuel on 21st September 2010. But the road to success was not devoid of hurdles and
setbacks. Apart from a from a lack of proper financial management plans for their marketing, they faced a dearth of dedicated
volunteers in VIT but with perseverance and strategic planning things finally fell into place.
Apurv has also worked with Morvo Corp which has built a number of software programs for many clients including Café De Pacific,
Balaji stores. Apurv says he looks at every task as a problem and gathers information about it,
as he believes information is always the key to finding a solution. He is a self-motivated guy

their support. Incepting their way with eminent NGOs like Bhoomi, Chennai and Sisters of the
People, Delhi; NgoFuel has come a long way in the past few months.
It is a non-profitable organization founded by Apurv and some of his friends namely Aditi,
Saswata, Sriram, Naveen, Vishnupriya, Kanika, Shreyas, Siddharth, Ankur, Amit and Naren
which serves as a free provider of web site domains, posters and other types of web based
