Frequently asked
- How many NGOs in Guwahati are listed on Daan?
- 18 organisations based in Guwahati 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 Guwahati?
- 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 Guwahati 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.
