You can give one-time or monthly, at ₹100, ₹200, ₹500, or an amount you choose — the same tiers Hope108 lists on its donate page. Food and groceries can also be given in kind.

  1. Give toward meals and ration kits

    On the Donate page, choose one-time or monthly and pick ₹100, ₹200, ₹500, or Other. If online giving isn't switched on yet, the form will say so and point you to the contact page — nothing is charged.

This is the only programme on this page with no published figure — Hope108's impact strip carries no counseling number, and we won't put one here until the trust publishes one. We also don't publish who provides the counseling, their qualifications, or how sessions are arranged. If any of that matters to you — and it should — ask through the contact page before you rely on this programme.
