Volunteers preparing charitable meals
Verified charity infrastructure, not blind giving

Charity that feels sacred and stands up to audit.

Celestial Charity is free to access and is being built as a seva layer for donor-directed giving: zero Celestial platform fee, third-party KYB for every partner, transparent receipts, and impact updates that donors can actually review.

0%
Celestial platform fee

Donation revenue should not subsidize the platform.

KYB
Required before launch

Entity, controller, bank, and sanctions checks.

90d
Impact update cadence

Quarterly donor-facing reporting per campaign.

12m
Document renewal

Live verified partners

Approved partners will be listed only after verification.

If the database contains active verified partners, they appear here. Otherwise this page stays honest and shows the partner pipeline instead of invented impact claims.

Verification ladder

The standard before any partner receives donor funds.

01

Public Trust Screen

Review Candid/GuideStar, Charity Navigator, GiveWell, GlobalGiving, BBB Wise Giving Alliance, annual reports, audited financials, and press history where available.

02

Third-Party KYB/KYC

Verify legal entity registration, tax IDs, beneficial controllers, authorized representatives, bank ownership, sanctions exposure, and adverse media through a dedicated provider before activation.

03

Compliance Review

Confirm jurisdiction-specific requirements such as 501(c)(3), charity registration, 12A, 80G, FCRA eligibility, receipts, data protection, and donation-use restrictions.

04

Impact Evidence

Require project budgets, utilization reports, receipts, field media, and quarterly impact updates before promoting repeat campaigns.

Donor promise

Every gift should have a clear path from intention to impact.

The right charity product is not just a donate button. It needs receipts, partner verification, fund-flow status, utilization evidence, and a quiet way to pause a partner when evidence is missing.
