Vasudha Foundation Donation, Refund, Privacy and Terms Policies

Donations received by Vasudha Foundation are applied to the charitable objectives set out in its Trust Deed — education, healthcare, poverty relief, social welfare, institutional care support and community development.

Contributions are pooled and allocated to active programmes based on need. Donations are voluntary and are not made in exchange for goods or services.

Every donation is assigned a unique reference number and issued a digital receipt. Bank and UPI transfers are verified by the Foundation administrator before a receipt is issued.

Donations are generally non-refundable once received, as funds are committed to programmes soon after receipt.

If a payment was made in error, was duplicated, or was debited without a receipt being generated, write to us within 7 days of the transaction with your donation reference number and transaction details.

Verified erroneous or duplicate payments are refunded to the original payment method. Refunds are processed through the payment gateway and typically reach the donor's account within 5–10 working days of approval.

We collect only the donor information required to process a donation and issue a receipt: name, email address, phone number and donation details.

Card, UPI and net banking credentials are entered directly on the payment gateway's secure checkout. This website never receives or stores those credentials.

Donor information is not sold, rented or shared with third parties for marketing. It may be shared with the payment gateway, or with authorities where disclosure is required by law.

You may request correction or deletion of your personal information, subject to record-keeping obligations applicable to a charitable trust.

By donating you confirm that the funds are from a lawful source and that the information you provide is accurate.

Donations to Vasudha Foundation are eligible for tax exemption under Section 80G of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (80G Registration No. AAETV8948CE20261). This website does not claim CSR eligibility or FCRA registration. Donors should consult a tax advisor for personal deductibility.

The Foundation may update these policies from time to time. The version published on this page applies to donations made after its publication.
