How to donate to cancer research?

A close friend recently got diagnosed with cancer, and it's been heartbreaking. I want to help in some way, and I was thinking of donating money to cancer research. What are some reputable organizations in India that focus on this?

Supporting cancer research is a wonderful way to bring positive energy into the world. You can find many reputed national organizations like the Tata Memorial Centre that accept online donations to fund their research projects.

Hey, you can actually donate small amounts online through official portals of research hospitals. Even as a student, contributing fifty or a hundred rupees during their donation drives is super easy via UPI.

I totally get it, when we lose someone close to cancer, we want to do everything we can to help find a cure. Donating directly to research institutes like Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute is a very meaningful way to make a difference.

We often look for remedies in our kitchens, but advanced medical research is what will ultimately save lives. Make sure you donate to well-known government-backed institutions so that every rupee is used properly for scientific study.

The most efficient way is to go to the official website of the Indian Cancer Society or ACTREC. You can make a direct bank transfer, and they will immediately send you an 80G certificate for tax exemption, which is highly convenient.
