Reado BookSocial Foundation

Donate

Your contribution can help a child keep learning.

Every rupee goes towards books, study material, device repairs and getting all of it to the child.

Online card and UPI payments are not switched on yet.

The payment gateway is being set up in the foundation’s name, which takes a few working days of verification. In the meantime you can give directly using the details alongside, or message us and we will help.

What we will not tell you

You will not find “₹500 educates a child” anywhere on this site. Costs vary by class, syllabus, language and how far the delivery has to go, and a fixed figure like that is almost always invented. We tell you what an amount covers, not what it guarantees.

On tax: Reado Book Social Foundation holds 12A registration, which exempts the foundation’s own income from tax. That is a different thing from 80G, which is what lets a donor claim a deduction — and we do not currently claim it. Please do not assume this donation is tax-deductible.

Questions about donating

01Is my donation tax-deductible?
No, and we will not pretend otherwise. ReadoBook holds 12A registration, which exempts the foundation's own income from tax — that is not the same thing as 80G, which is what gives a donor a deduction. We do not currently hold 80G, so please do not assume a deduction is available. If it is granted, the certificate number will appear on our transparency page.
02How do I know my money was received?
Online donations return a payment reference immediately and an acknowledgement by email. Direct bank transfers and UPI payments are reconciled by hand, so allow a few working days and keep your transaction reference.
03Can I choose what my donation pays for?
Yes. Pick a campaign on the donation page, or tell us in the message field. We will not pretend a fixed amount educates a fixed number of children — costs vary, and that claim is usually invented.
