Hi, I am at present residing in US. I wanted to give donation for an orphanage in Chennai. I was looking at the thread by latamurali about the GOOD LIFE Centre. Is there a way in which I can make a payment from here. Thanks Malar

There is also a site called giveindia.org. This agency helps you choose the charitable organisation and make the donation. But around 9-10% of your donation amount is charged as their charges. You can make payment through credit card as well......
