MicroCharity — Micro contributions towards Mighty Changes

About Us

A small group of friends, helping one cause at a time.

MicroCharity is a registered charitable trust founded on a simple idea: bridge the gap between people who need help and people who want to help — directly, transparently, and with zero overheads.

Our Vision

"MicroCharity is a humble initiative to bridge the gap between the rich and the poor, to make the world a better place to live in."

Where it began

It started in September 2002 in Bangalore — ten individuals and a priest who met as a prayer group. As we worked together, we kept seeing the same picture: a magnitude of people who genuinely needed help, and another magnitude of generous people who wanted to help but didn't know how.

So we tried something simple. We picked one specific case at a time — a surgery, a school fee, a small shop — collected what was needed, and made sure it got there. Then we did it again. And again.

Where we are today

Over the last two decades, MicroCharity has grown into a network of 4,505+ donors and 14 family units of volunteers spread across cities and continents. Every one of us a volunteer. Nobody on payroll. That's how we run on 0% administrative expenses — every rupee you donate reaches the cause.
