Subsequently some years later, we approached Webszol through a reference, and we realized that we had interacted earlier. We bonded immediately.

Making a website was a totally new area of functioning for our NGO, as we were from a generation not that computer or Internet savvy, and a website was definitely beyond the limitations of our exposure. Nirmal Shah put us at ease, went into intricate details of our NGO functioning, diligently made notes, interacted with us for feedbacks, brain-stormed with our staff, and finally made a website exactly as per our requirements. Since we were pretty ignorant in website designing, he could have, if he wanted, done some hard selling and put in graphics or other flashy technical details and hiked his billing. But he did nothing of that sort. Instead, he understood our ethics, our principle of low-key functioning and let-our-work-speak-for-itself philosophy, and came up with a beauty of a website.

We have received many donations from senior people purely because they have gone through our website in detail. Many have commented that there is no hard selling in the website itself, and only the quantum of our work and our commitment behind it shines through. A legendary person like RussiLala (the biographer of JRD Tata) ended up contributing 16.7 lacs vide his Will to our Trust. HDFC contributed 12 lacs over 3 years, one reason being their chief functionary Shri Keki Mistry having gone through our website, upon receiving an appeal letter from us.

There are innumerable other instance of kind-hearted citizens having been moved by browsing through our website. Technically speaking, the number of ‘hits’ which our website must be receiving must be very high, because the moment someone googles the word ‘mentally ill’ a link to our website www.shraddharehabilitationfoundation.org surfaces immediately. And the oft quoted comment is ‘the website is low key, states only facts, and there is no overt begging-pleading for donations’. We believe that the reason for the success of our website is Nirmal Shah and webzsol have captured the essence of our functioning and have been able to translate it into a down-to-earth but still subtly-captivating website. Hats off to them.

It has been almost 10 years since our association with Webzsol and we would like to believe that they are a part of the Shraddha family. Always as easily accessible as ever, no development of ‘airs’ to their functioning despite their growth over the years, we believe that their contribution to the cause of the wandering mentally ill roadside destitutes which we represent, has been immense. While often all the accolades go to a few people behind any respected NGO, we believe it is the people who have sweated and toiled it out behind-the-scenes that truly deserves the accolades, and all the praise for Webzsol would still fall short.

We are confident that the Gods are witness to the good deeds of Nirmal Shah and the entire team of Webzsol vide their contribution to Shraddha and shall always be with all of them withTheir blessings.
