Frequently asked

How many NGOs in Bengaluru are listed on Daan?
221 organisations based in Bengaluru are currently listed, across 12 cause areas. We add more as we verify them, so the number goes up over time.
What does 'verified' mean on Daan?
It means we have confirmed the organisation is real and operating: we check its official website, its registered name and the logo we display against the organisation's own published material. It is not an audit of their finances or programme quality — always read an NGO's own annual report before giving a large amount.
Can I claim 80G tax exemption for donating to an NGO in Bengaluru?
Many registered Indian NGOs hold 80G certification, which lets you claim a deduction, but it varies by organisation and can lapse. Check the specific NGO's website or ask them for their 80G certificate number before you assume a donation is deductible.
Can I volunteer with these Bengaluru organisations?
Yes. Open the NGO's page and use the Volunteer tab — where an organisation has not yet joined Daan, you can register interest and we will tell them and notify you when they post opportunities.
Does Daan take a cut of donations?
No. Donations are not yet processed on Daan at all — every NGO page links you to the organisation's own donation page, so your money goes directly to them.

NGOs in other cities
