Creative Services Support Group

The Creative Services Support Group (CSSG) is a registered charity, based in New Delhi, India, established to aid underprivileged young adults through skills training and mentorship within the creative sectors.^[1]

History

CSSG was founded in 2011 by Anand Kapoor.^[2]

Working with marginalized youths from several partner organisations, CSSG provides guidance to newfound adults who aren’t on traditional career paths, through mentorship, advice, and creative career opportunities. CSSG works with a youth to learn their interests, train them in the relevant skills, pair them with a likeminded mentor and provide them with a career opportunity.^[3]

Charity dinners

CSSG uses high-profile events for fundraising. In an article of the Financial Express, Kapoor, founder of CSSG, states that “charity doesn’t need to be miserable […] if there is a celebratory cheer, giving becomes a joyful act and something that is transferred to the eventual recipients.”^[4]
