Refund Policy

Weaker Sections Development Society 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. Weaker Sections Development Society expects that all donors will excrcise due care and diligence while making donations. Weaker Sections Development Society also recognises that a donation may be made erroneously or donars may change their mind.

Weaker Sections Development Society will examine each request for refund of donation and endeavour to make the refund. Weaker Sections Development Society may also seek further information / documents and donor must co-operate in this regard.

The donation will be used for the education, healthcare, social welfare and women empowerment of the poorest of the poor in far-flung villages. Our Foundation does not compel any person or organization to donate money. It depends on your wish whether you are willing to contribute some portion of your income towards the philanthropic activities for the establishment of universal peace and brotherhood.

If at any time you feel that you wish to collect any information on how your money was spent, you are most welcome to contact us. While donating the money, you are free to ask any query or doubt which you have in your mind. Our experts will guide you through the entire process and how the money is utilized. It is your right to know where the donation is being used.

Once online payment is made, we will send a confirmation email regarding their donation along with a tax-exempted receipt valid u/s 80G of IT.

The request for any donation-related information can be sent to wsdsngo@gmail.com

The Foundation takes the utmost care to process donations as per the instructions given by our donors, online and offline. However, in case of an unlikely event of an erroneous donation or if the donor would like to cancel his donation, the Foundation will respond to the donor within 30 working days of receiving a valid request for refund from the donor. The timely refund of the donation will depend upon the type of credit card/banking instrument used during the transaction. The donor will have to send the Foundation a written request for a refund within 1 days of making the donation to the Foundation s official address or email wsdsngo@gmail.com
