Tier II listing lets your NGO: 1. Set up unlimited fundraising pages called iGive pages on the GiveIndia site. 2. Lets your supporters and well-wishers set up fundraising pages on the site too and reach out to their friends and relatives, and use the platform to raise money for your organization. 3. GiveIndia handles the entire online payment process. Money is disbursed to the NGOs once every month, along with a list of donors who have donated. However, donor contact information is kept confidential. 4. Save on paperwork and the effort related to sending receipts printing & posting mailers.

A few examples of how NGOs can use this iGive facility:
• To buy new equipment like computers or medical instruments

• To build or renovate classrooms or clinics

• To raise special funds for a crisis or natural disaster

• To make a playground for the children they serve

• To make an appeal in times of emergency, for a major surgery etc.

• To raise funds or pledges during an event like a marathon.

An iGive reimbursement report must be submitted to us before you create your iGive page. This means you won't be able to create a page until your iGive Reimbursement report reaches us. Generally it will take 2 days for your report to be approved and uploaded, after which you will be able to create your iGive page.

Yes. Download and fill this standard format for an iGive Reimbursement Report.

A Fund Utilization Certificate (FUC) is a report which details out how you have used money that you have received from GiveIndia through iGive pages. It needs to be signed by your Chartered Accountant if the amount raised is greater than Rs. 1 Lakh. One FUC needs to be submitted by your NGO for funds raised in a particular financial year. This needs to be submitted within 3 months of the end of the financial year ( i.e. by June 30th).

NO unless your beneficiaries in this case qualify as poor beneficiaries or the disabled need some medical support.

Any unclaimed funds as of March 31st ( i.e. the end) of that financial year would be disbursed by GiveIndia to other NGOs meeting the criteria.

The iGive Reimbursement Report is a report of expenses already undertaken and hence must mention in detail what these expenses were as well as clearly demarcate that they have been used for the work area in which the NGO has been listed (one of Education/Environment/Relief of Poor/Medical Relief)

We're sorry but this will not be possible.

Yes. A reimbursement report would be required to be submitted for the matching amount won (if any) too. This is one of the terms/conditions of that particular fundraising challenge.

No. As per the new laws, these funds must be used in the current financial year. Hence, GiveIndia too cannot keep this money to transfer to you in the next financial year.

Yes. As by default they would have beneficiaries that are 'poor' as defined by the IT. All funds raised through iGive must be used for these beneficiaries only. And an iGive reimbursement report must be submitted in order to get started with the fundraising.

Yes. The permitted expenses are - education, medical relief, preservation of environment, relief of poor (as defined in the Income Tax Act 1961).
The definitions are as follows:
Education is defined as education in a formal school or college registered with the Government only, and excludes vocational training, coaching in arts or sport, etc. Medical relief is defined as medical treatment and medicines only, and excludes awareness, prevention, insurance and other activities.
