What do you mean by a GiveIndia certified NGO?

A GiveIndia certified NGO has cleared stringent norms of credibility and accountability. We have a thorough, transparent and objective selection process for the NGOs profiled on our site.

Here are some of the criteria we use for selection:

* Organisations must be registered non-profits that implement social development projects in India, with no political affiliations.

* At least 50% of their beneficiaries must be economically underprivileged.

* Organisations must be unbiased in their beneficiary selection i.e. non religious / non political.

* The organisation should meet the Credibility Alliance's norms or be willing to meet them within 6 months of listing on our site.

* The organisation must be willing to create donation options and provide prompt feedback for the donations.
