Refund and Cancellation Statement

Due to the nature of charity donations and because Shree Shivkrupanand Swami Foundation regularly remits funds we are under no obligation to give refunds. Decisions on refunds will be at the discretion of Shree Shivkrupanand Swami Foundation’s management.

If a donation is refunded, the associated tax receipt is no longer valid so it should be securely destroyed. Please note it is your responsibility to submit only correct receipts to the Indian Income Tax Office.

Donations and Refunds

Shree Shivkrupanand Swami Foundation accepts all donations in good faith. Whilst we understand entirely that everyone has different preferences regarding donations and that sometimes it is not convenient to give, we will not refund a donation that has been knowingly and voluntarily given to us.

We will refund if there was an error made by Shree Shivkrupanand Swami Foundation or one of our Volunteers.

We will refund if the donation was provided by a vulnerable person.

We may refund if the donor entered the wrong amount.

We may refund if there are exceptional circumstances.

Should an error in the donation amount be detected and a request for refund made after 90 days have expired, Shree Shivkrupanand Swami Foundation regrets that we are unable to issue a refund.

Shree Shivkrupanand Swami Foundation is a non-profit charity organisation and we reserve the right to deduct any bank or transaction charges for any refund processed onto the donor.
