There are no great discoveries and advances

as long as there is still

one unhappy child on earth.

A general donation, i.e., without specifying a specific project on your part, gives us the opportunity to use it where it is most needed. In this case, it is helpful if you simply indicate “donation” in the “purpose” field when making the transfer.

If you prefer to dedicate your donation to a specific project, please indicate the name of the project or destination – such as “Balashram” or “Chrysalis” or “Health Centres” or “Disaster Relief”- when you do the bank transfer.
