IIT Delhi Excellence Foundation (IITDEF) Donation Options

US residents can donate to IITDEF (a 501c3 registered non-profit) in the following ways:
Individual Donations

Zelle (daily limit of $1,000 to $2,500 depending on the sending bank)

  • To the email address: [email protected] - donors should include the purpose of donation and their email address in the Memo field.
  • These payments settle within minutes and incur zero fees.

PayPal

  • Through our PayPal Giving Fund page (https://www.paypal.com/us/fundraiser/charity/2262942) - donors should ensure that the 'Share my name and email with this charity' box is checked, and they should also email IITDEF’s CFO Rohit Goel directly at [email protected] to let him know that they've donated through PayPal and mention the purpose of donation
  • IIT Delhi will provide a tax receipt, but donors may disregard it per PayPal’s terms of service: “PayPal Giving Fund will provide your donation receipt, and you will disregard any additional tax receipt you receive from a benefiting charity as a result of PayPal Giving Fund's grant.”
  • These payments take 4-6 weeks to settle and incur zero fees
  • If donors prefer faster settlement, they should send funds by wire transfer (please see #5 below). This is strongly recommended for donations larger than $5k.
