Give India Enlistment .
We were enlisted with Give India, a donation platform
where only 178 organizations out of approximately 37
lakh NGOs existing in India are enlisted after a thorough
screening of their credibility and transparency. The due
diligence process for us took around 14 months. The
donations for RHCF from the Give India platform range
from Rs 250 to Rs 2500. We request you to donate online
through the link:
http://www.giveindia.org/m-1236-rural-health-care-
foundation.aspx. You will get a direct feedback report
from Give India about the usage of your donations
