NGOs spend disproportionate time on administration, collecting volunteer details on paper, tracking beneficiaries in spreadsheets, and manually acknowledging donations, instead of doing the actual work. FormBharat gives you free digital forms for every admin step: volunteer signup, beneficiary intake, donation acknowledgement, and grant application forms.

Why FormBharat
Not a generic form tool, built with the workflows, payment methods, and constraints of Indian businesses in mind.
Share the volunteer registration form link in WhatsApp groups or on social media. Volunteers fill skills, availability, and emergency contacts, all structured, all in one place.
Collect beneficiary names, ID proof uploads, eligibility information, and consent in a single digital form. Organised records for donor reporting and audits.
Every feature, file uploads, notifications, Google Sheets export, is free during early access. No donation processing fees from FormBharat, no per-response pricing.
In practice
An NGO shares its volunteer registration form link in a WhatsApp community group ahead of a weekend food drive. Volunteers fill skills, availability, and emergency contact from their phone, no app download, no account. The coordinator downloads the list as a CSV the morning of the event to assign roles by skill, and sets a response limit so signups close automatically once enough volunteers are confirmed.
Not a fit if
FAQ
Yes. Share the volunteer registration form link on WhatsApp. Volunteers open it in their browser, no app download required, and submit their name, skills, availability, and emergency contact in one step.
Yes, for income certificates or other eligibility documents, add a file upload field and files are stored securely and accessible from your dashboard. Avoid asking for Aadhaar cards specifically: FormBharat isn't UIDAI-licensed to hold Aadhaar data, so Aadhaar-labelled fields are blocked. Verify Aadhaar-based eligibility in person or through a licensed channel instead.
Yes. Enable automatic email notifications to send donors a confirmation the moment they submit a donation or contribution form. Customise the message to include a receipt number and a thank-you note from your organisation.
Yes. Build a multi-section grant application form with fields for organisation details, programme description, budget breakdown, and document upload. All applications are stored in your dashboard and exportable to CSV.
Yes. All form responses and uploaded files are stored with encryption in transit and at rest. FormBharat does not share or sell data. Only authorised users on your account can access responses.
