    Meri is the eldest of her siblings. She and her two sisters lived and studied together in a hostel, whereas her parents toiled the land and saved every penny possible to educate their girls. Meri had just entered Class 10. She was determined to study hard and build a better future for her family. But when she suddenly developed a high fever at the hostel, her parents were called to take her home. 

    What they hoped would be a simple seasonal flu, turned out to be a life-threatening disease- Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), a severe form of blood cancer.

    Weak and pale, barely able to stand

    “When we brought her home, she had a high fever and could barely stand. With each passing day, Meri grew weaker, pale, and unable to even go to the washroom on her own.” - Miru, mother 

    For months, the family travelled from one hospital to another, trying medicines, tests, and treatments. Meri’s blood count kept dropping, and she needed frequent blood transfusions just to stay stable. It wasn’t until they reached a larger hospital in Bangalore that the doctors discovered what was really happening. Meri needs chemotherapy to survive, and the treatment will cost the family 8 lakh rupees.

    Living in the Hospital, Holding on to Hope

    The family has no place to stay in the unknown city. Miru sleeps beside Meri in the hospital bed, while Pradeep, her father, sleeps in corridors or waiting areas, with only a thin cloth to cover himself. They eat only after feeding Meri, stretching whatever borrowed money remains.
    “The doctors say she is responding well. If we can just continue the treatment, she will recover. But we don’t have any money left. We had saved to educate our daughters, but all our savings, nearly everything we had, were spent just reaching this point. Now we don’t know how to continue.” - Pradeep, father



    Farmer parents need your help to save her
    Meri is old enough to understand everything. Sometimes she cries quietly, while her parents give her courage and hope that she’ll be better soon with the treatment. But that very treatment, these parents cannot afford.

    “We are merely small farmers in a village, earning sixty thousand rupees a year. Our income is not nearly enough to complete her treatment and take her home. We don’t know what else to do now. Please help us.” - Miru, mother

    Our highly dedicated team works hard to ensure that all campaigns on Donatekart Life are verified and go through a series of stringent filtering processes before they are featured on our website. This includes background verification, medical documents, estimated cost of treatment and more.
    Every fundraiser page has a ‘Documents’ section which contains all the necessary information as proof of authenticity. Please feel free to reach out to us at info@donatekart.com if you have any further questions regarding a particular campaign or believe that a campaign is misleading or has misinformation.

    After you complete your donation successfully, you will find the 'GET 80G' button on the payment success page. Please fill in your PAN number, complete address, and name as per PAN and submit. Your 80G certificate will be generated and sent via email within 24 hours.

    Alternatively, you can get your 80G receipt in a few simple steps:

    1. Log in to your account using the same email ID you used for the donation
    2. Go to ‘My Donations’
    3. Choose the financial year for which you'd like the donation certificate
    4. Click on ‘Download 80G Certificate’
    5. Fill out the Form (if required)
    6. Submit the form and 80G will get downloaded instantly

    Instead of receiving separate 80G certificates for each donation, you'll receive a consolidated 80G certificate via email covering all your donations made through our platform in the financial year. Further, The corresponding 10BE form that proves your eligibility for the tax deduction will also be consolidated. This way, you won't have to worry about multiple downloads and can save time.

    To qualify for tax exemption on your donations, you need to obtain a 10BE. This can be done by filing your 80G claims for donations made during the Financial Year (FY). You can download your 10BE from the‘My Profile’ section by 31st May of the next FY and also receive it via email.

    For example: if you made donations between April 2023 and March 2024 (FY 2023-24), you will get your 10BE by 31st May 2024, provided you need to claim the 80G for these donations.

    Please note that you cannot claim 80G for donations made between April 2022 and March 2023 (FY 2022-23) anymore as the window for claiming it has closed. However, you can still get the 10BEs for that year if you made 80G claims on or before 31st July 2023.
