Transparency
The transparency that fosters a sense of trust for our supporters
Why should you join us?
One of the guiding principles of Mahesh Foundation is transparency. A donation is the ideal means to further a good cause. You can easily donate the money you'd set aside for a Starbucks coffee, a movie, or the newest fashion accessory it doesn't even need to be a large quantity. A small donation can also have a significant impact on the life of a young person in need. Are all contributions the same? Does each dollar provided have the same overall impact? In discussing what makes an NGO credible, let's also examine how Mahesh Foundation is able to gain the donors' trust.
ISO 9001:2015 is a worldwide standard that sets requirements for a strong Quality Management System. It details specific processes, procedures and activities that organizations must create, implement, maintain and improve in order to successfully manage making products or delivering services. A third party issues a certificate to help customers have more confidence that the organization has a system in place to meet their requirements. Mahesh Foundation received this certification in 2021 for the quality management of the services rendered to medically challenged and underprivileged children.
Ensuring Transparency and Impact
Our recognition as a legitimate entity is anchored in our formal registration under the Karnataka Societies Registration Act. Moreover, the Mahesh Foundation garners the privilege of tax benefits as sanctioned by Section 80G of the Income Tax Act. As a testament to our unwavering financial strength, we proudly hold registration under the FCRA (Foreign Contribution Regulation Act), enabling us to warmly embrace contributions from across the globe. In our commitment to transparency, our website consistently provides real-time updates of our financial statements. Your continued support fuels our journey towards a brighter future.
Promoting Accountability.
We are fully open to any form of public scrutiny. The Mahesh Foundation embraces in-depth discussions about our management practices without hesitation. Feel free to involve our personnel for a comprehensive audit if desired. In fact, CA Umesh Bolmal, an experienced chartered accountant, has been a consistent part of our team for years. To enhance financial transparency, he conducts meticulous three to four level checks. Your trust is of utmost importance to us, and we are committed to upholding our accountability and transparency standards.
Committed to Making a Difference
Our programs have made a meaningful impact on children's lives. At our care home, we provide a nurturing environment for 101 kids, addressing their housing, food, and educational needs. We take pride in our efficiency, ensuring that the majority of donations directly support initiatives benefiting thousands of underprivileged children annually. To date, 90% of the received donations have been allocated to program costs, demonstrating our unwavering commitment to making a positive change in these children's lives.
