Give From Abroad

Your Roots Are in AP. Here's the Safest Way to Give Back.

For Telugu families in the USA, UK, UAE, Australia, Canada, and beyond, charitable giving needs clarity on FCRA, receipts, and trusted use of funds.

Why NRI giving is different

Sending money to family is a remittance. Donating to an Indian nonprofit from abroad is regulated through FCRA compliance. The goal is simple: your care reaches Andhra Pradesh legally, transparently, and with the right receipt trail.

  • Confirm FCRA eligibility before international transfers
  • Use official bank or payment details only
  • Keep donation receipt and passport/PAN details where required
