This article covers: what information a valid 80G receipt must contain under the Income Tax Act, why cash donations above ₹2,000 cannot be receipted under 80G, what Form 10BE is and when it must be issued, and how NGOHub handles all of this automatically for every donation type.

5 ways WhatsApp automation saves NGO staff 10 hours a week

Indian donors respond to WhatsApp more than any other channel. But sending WhatsApp messages from a personal phone number is unscalable, unprofessional, and creates compliance risks. Here's how NGOs are using WhatsApp Business automation to communicate better with less effort.

The 5 ways covered: (1) automatic 80G receipt delivery via WhatsApp immediately after donation, (2) pledge payment reminders sent automatically before each instalment due date, (3) donor birthday and anniversary messages sent without any manual action, (4) fundraising campaign updates sent in bulk to segmented donor lists, (5) event invitations, reminders, and post-event thank-yous with zero staff time.
