Problems faced by the developed and developing countries in the area of welfare services demand radically different approaches. Whereas, the developed countries are putting the responsibility primarily on the government, the developing countries are struggling to mobilize their own resources to look for foreign assistance for this purpose.

At best, it is to be hoped that there could be co-ordinate efforts between the private and public sector for provision of the needed welfare services through the most economical and efficient use of financial, human and technical resources. IMAMS has been successful in developing a model of welfare services in a large number of areas where the Foundation supplements and supports the government system by mobilizing community resources without burdening the public exchequer.
