How it works
From your request to the session
Send the request
Fill in the form below with the sessions, classes and dates you would like.
We call you
Within three working days, to confirm a date our team can make.
The session
Our team comes to your school with its own laptop and holds the session.
Afterwards
You tell us how it went, and we stay with any child who speaks up.
Who speaks, and the fee
What it costs
Our trained volunteers take every session, and on their own the session is free of charge. For Rs. 1,499 an advocate joins them, based on availability, and for Rs. 2,499 a person who has recovered from the issue joins as well and shares their experience. Because the session depends on our team, its date is subject to the availability of our team, and we confirm it with you by phone.
With Alorah volunteers
Free
With Alorah volunteers and an advocate
Rs. 1,499
With Alorah volunteers, an advocate and a person who has recovered
Rs. 2,499
The fee covers only 50% of the legal charges, the to and fro travel for the advocate and the recovered person, and the guest's accommodation and food. Alorah takes none of it, and bears the other 50% and any cost above it, because our purpose is to create awareness and to protect the safety of children and society.
When we confirm the date by phone, we email you a link to pay online by UPI, card or net banking. Nothing is paid before the date is confirmed.
Collecting this fee is lawful. Alorah Foundation is a registered charitable trust, and a charitable trust may collect a fee below cost for its own charitable work. This is a session fee with a payment receipt, not a donation, so it does not carry an 80G tax benefit.
The law behind this
Supreme Court of India, 19 October 2022, in ACIT (Exemptions) v. Ahmedabad Urban Development Authority: a charge for such work "on cost-basis or nominally above cost" is not trade, commerce or business.
Income-tax Act, 2025, sections 345 and 346: any activity a registered charitable trust carries on for a fee must be incidental to its objects and kept in separate books. Our session fees have their own receipt series and their own books.
Good to know
Before you book
Photographs and videos
Our team takes photographs and videos of every session, for our records and to publish on our website and social media. This is part of every session and is not optional.
If a child speaks up afterwards
Sometimes a student, or somebody else, comes up with something after a session. There is nothing to panic about: our legal team will take care of everything, and we work with the teacher you name.
Where we hold sessions
For now we hold sessions in Coimbatore city only.
What the school arranges
- A teacher stays in the room for the whole session.
- A projector and screen, and a microphone or speakers, if you have them. We bring our own laptop.
- A hall or a classroom that seats the students, with a power point near the projector.
- A teacher or counsellor a child can go to afterwards.
Request
Request a session
Fill this in and our team will call you within three working days to confirm the date. Please ask at least a week ahead.
What we do with what you tell us, and the law that governs it
- What we collect: the school's name and address, and the name, role, phone number and email of the person we should talk to.
- Why: to arrange the session and to reach you about it.
- Who sees it: our team. Nobody else. We do not sell it and we do not share it for advertising.
- What we keep: photographs and videos of the session, the record of the session and of your request, and the record of any help we give a child afterwards are kept for our internal records and cannot be removed.
- Your rights: ask us for a copy, ask us to correct it, ask us to erase anything we do not have to keep, or withdraw your consent, by writing to support@alorah.org. Under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 you may also complain to the Data Protection Board of India.
