The founders got the inspiration from Shri Aurobindo Ashram’s ecosystem in Pondicherry wherein, every aspect functions in tandem for the benefit of all. On sharing his experience, Jagrat Desai said, “The inspiration which we got helped us to create a technology and entertainment powered eco system that ensures a sustainable and continuous flow of funds to NGOs that work tirelessly towards the progress of India. We are bringing positive twists to the act of doing Charity by repurposing our most common activities like viewing content and chatting into philanthropic outcomes. The unique method of making the act of charity free, fun and rewarding is the reason why the app is called “Charity With A Twist”. The genesis of this thought process is to create a name and a sound that is unique and unbiased in such a way that everyone can relate with it. Hence CWAT! A sound that stands for the new age method of bringing progress in India.”

Sharing his experience, Founder Harshit Desai said, “The only way to do charity today is by either volunteering with an NGO or donating money. The CWAT App provides a unique opportunity for users to be able to do charity without spending a single rupee from their pockets. The CWAT app lets its users raise funds for their favourite NGOs while watching fun content or by chatting with their friends, family and interest based groups. The CWAT App also rewards its users with amazing NGO products and medical services against the donations they raise by viewing ads. As 100% of the net profits generated by CWAT are donated to NGOs, the CWAT App provides a continuous flow of funds to the NGOs, letting them do what they do best; developing our country. The more users the CWAT App has, the more funds it will donate to the NGOs selected by the users.”
