Vishwahitha Foundation is instituting a donation refund policy to ensure fair and transparent processing of requests for refund of donations as digital payments are becoming more frequent. Vishwahitha Foundation expects that all donors will exercise due care and diligence while making donations. Vishwahitha Foundation also recognizes that a donation may be made erroneously or donors may change their mind.
Vishwahitha Foundation will examine each request for refund of donation and endeavor to make the refund. Vishwahitha Foundation may also seek further information/documents, and the donor must cooperate in this regard.
However, Vishwahitha Foundation is not obliged to make refunds and may, at its discretion, decline any requests for refund of donations, particularly if a tax exemption certificate has been issued.
If you would like your donation to Vishwahitha Foundation to be refunded, you must request Vishwahitha Foundation in writing or by email for a refund. Your request must reach Vishwahitha Foundation within 15 (fifteen) days from the date on which you made the donation i.e., the date on which you:

- Handed over the cheque/demand draft to Vishwahitha Foundation or someone authorized by Vishwahitha Foundation for this purpose, OR
- Despatched the cheque/demand draft to Vishwahitha Foundation by other means.
