₹150 is one dog, fed, for a month
Not a campaign. Not a target. A grocery bill that arrives every week, a medicine cabinet that empties, and a surgery list that only moves as fast as it is funded.
Everything here has a price we actually pay
Indicative costs in Khammam, as at 2026. Prices move; the list does not.
Feeds one street dog for a month — rice, protein and the fuel to bring it to her.
Deworming and tick treatment for a whole litter of puppies.
A full course of wound care for an injured dog — dressing, antibiotics, daily return visits.
One sterilisation surgery with anti-rabies vaccination. Prevents dozens of puppies born onto a road.
A Compassion Classroom session for around 200 schoolchildren, materials included.
A month of shelter care for a paralysed dog — bedding, food, medicine, and the hands that turn him.
The most useful thing you can do is give a small amount every month
A one-off ₹5,000 is generous. ₹300 a month, standing, is more useful — because it lets us book surgery slots in advance, buy medicine before we need it, and keep the shelter dogs fed in the weeks when nobody is watching. Set up a monthly UPI autopay to the ID below and tell us, so we can plan around it.

We share full account details on request rather than publishing them, to reduce the risk of anyone impersonating us.
Card, netbanking or from outside India
We do not yet have a card payment gateway, and we are not registered under the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act — which means we cannot lawfully accept donations from foreign sources.
If you are overseas and want to help, the most effective route is to ask someone in India to give on your behalf, or to fund a specific item — a surgery, a month of shelter care — through them. Write to us and we will work it out with you.
Sponsor a day's feeding for a birthday — or in someone's memory
People in Khammam already do this. Scroll the channel and you will find videos titled with a child's name and “happy birthday”, and one recorded on the seventh death anniversary of a woman named Janakamma. On those days, the dogs eat a little better and somebody's name is spoken over the bowls.
It costs roughly ₹1,200 to sponsor a full day's feeding across the route. We film it, name the occasion, and send you the video.
- Birthdays — children's, especially
- Death anniversaries and remembrance days
- Weddings, housewarmings, exam results
- Festivals — Ugadi, Sankranti, Diwali, Eid, Christmas
No salaries. No offices. Rice, medicine, fuel, surgery.
The society's own memorandum records that office bearers are not paid from the funds of the association. That has not changed.
Food
Rice, chicken, eggs, milk, oil — bought weekly, cooked daily.
Medicine
Antibiotics, anti-inflammatories, dressings, dewormers, tick powder, anti-rabies vaccine.
Surgery
Sterilisation fees to veterinary partners, transport, and post-operative care.
Shelter & fuel
Bedding, cleaning, water, and the petrol that gets the route done twice a day.
Our accountability, honestly stated
We are a small society, not a large NGO with an audit department. What we can offer is unusual in this sector and worth more than a glossy report: a public, timestamped video record of the work, published continuously on our channel, and every registration document published in full on our transparency page. If you sponsor a specific animal or a specific day, you will get the footage of it.
Tax, registration, and what we are not claiming
We cannot currently offer you a tax deduction
Jyothi Animal Welfare is a society registered under the Telangana Societies Registration Act, 2001 — Registration No. 13 of 2021. That gives us legal existence. It gives you no tax benefit, and any organisation that tells you otherwise is misinforming you.
A donor deduction in India requires separate approval under Section 80G of the Income Tax Act (now Section 354 of the Income Tax Act, 2025). We do not hold that approval today. If and when we do, it will be published on this page and on our transparency page with the certificate attached — and we will tell you plainly that the deduction is 50%, capped at 10% of adjusted gross total income, and is unavailable to anyone filing under the new tax regime.
We would rather lose a donation than mislead you into expecting a receipt we cannot issue.
What we do give you
A written acknowledgement of your donation, on request. Footage of the specific work your money funded, if you sponsored something specific. And an honest answer to any question you ask about our finances.
Protect yourself
Always check the name at the payment screen reads JYOTHI ANIMAL WELFARE. We will never contact you asking for an OTP, a PIN, remote access to your phone, or a payment to any UPI ID other than the one on this page. If someone claiming to be us does, it is not us — please tell us.
There are four other things we need just as much
Time, a vehicle, a veterinary skill, or simply a person on your own lane who notices.
