How are my donations split between admin and program costs?
We maintain a strict 90/10 split. 90% of all public donations are spent directly on program supplies, counseling sessions, medications, and project infrastructure. Only 10% is allocated to general trust admin (website servers, essential communications, audit compliance).
Are certificates of tax deduction issued instantly?
Yes, for Indian taxpayers, a 50% tax deduction under Section 80G is available. Upon successful transaction through Razorpay, a digital receipt with the trust's 80G credentials is automatically generated and emailed to you. Form 10BE is filed annually with the IT Dept.
