Uniting Bharat: The Grannus Organization Revolutionizes Volunteering Across India
Imagine a world where every woman feels protected, every child is safe, the hungry are fed, and citizens unite in times of natural disasters or emergencies to support local authorities. People in India have long desired to contribute to the greater good through volunteering, but a major challenge has been how to unite these efforts on a large scale. Across the country, small social groups form to take on local tasks, but scaling these groups to a national level has been difficult—until now.
A groundbreaking solution has emerged from Ahmedabad, where the Grannus organization, a technology-driven organisation, has designed the Grannus PHPN App to bring people across Bharat together for a common purpose: helping others in need. PHPN, or "People Helping People Network," is exactly what the name suggests—a platform connecting citizens from all parts of India through cutting-edge technology. This app, powered by Grannus’ unique DGBSI SRPP/RTPP model, is particularly effective in mobilizing volunteers during emergencies.
Leadership and Vision
The Grannus PHPN project operates under the guidance of a highly respected figure in Gujarat, Geetha Johri, the former Director General of Police (DGP) of Gujarat, who now serves as the President of Grannus Organization. Alongside her, Mayank Shah, a social entrepreneur and the CEO of Grannus Organization, envisioned this platform as a means to unite people through social-interest-based integration through his unique idea of making DGBSI SRPP/RTPP model for emergency management. The brilliant coding to make this technology live was done by Chirag Patel.
“We are leveraging digitalization to tackle India's most pressing social issues,” says Mayank Shah. “Grannus connects citizens who are committed to societal betterment by organizing them based on their location and social interests. Our app facilitates everything from ensuring women’s safety, locating missing persons, and managing medical emergencies, to responding to national crises and natural disasters. We also support food donation drives and environmental initiatives. Users can register for free, select their areas of interest, and receive real-time alerts when their assistance is needed. Together, we can create a safer, more connected community.”
A Rising Success in Gujarat
Since its launch, the Grannus PHPN app has gained viral popularity in Gujarat, even trending at number one on the Google Play Store for several days. It is now the highest-rated Indian app focused on social issues. The app has drawn praise from prominent figures, including Gujarat’s Chief Minister, Bhupendra Bhai Patel, and various IAS and IPS officers, who have commended Grannus for its successful projects, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic.
How It Works
Joining the movement is simple. Volunteers can download the Grannus PHPN app from the Google Play Store, select their social interests—ranging from women's safety and disaster response to environmental work—and receive notifications when their help is needed. Users can choose one or more interests, and the app connects them with nearby volunteering opportunities, whether with local NGOs or during emergencies in their vicinity.
A Vision for National Impact
“Our population, often seen as a challenge, can become our greatest asset,” explains Shah. “The government is working tirelessly to address social issues, but by connecting people and empowering them with volunteering opportunities, we can solve many of our country's problems together.”
Under the administrative leadership of Geetha Johri, the project is poised to expand beyond Gujarat and make a significant impact across the nation. The Grannus PHPN app has the potential to transform India’s social landscape, bringing together communities and creating a brighter, safer future for all.
