Charity Organizations/NGOs NGO stands for Non-Governmental Organization, which basically translates to things work in these organizations. The best thing one can do in this world is to give back to the society. We would like to bring to your attention all charitable organizations and NGOs in Karnataka. Some of them don't directly fall into this category but they allow you to sponsor some of their activities. We have included the names of national and international organizations that operate in Karnataka. We feel one should donate for the sake of donating and not for the sake of tax savings. Either way, please donate. Please note that we have absolutely no connection with any of these organizations. - Animal Lovers
