Fund raising dos and don'ts.

Please could someone educate me re fundraising here ?
Do you need a license ? Must it be registered as a charity?
If I have a table and collect things to sell for a cause ( for the poor in India, I have excellent contacts and I know the money goes directly into the communities, ( rural and ciriy) to pay for schooling, food, clothes etc.
Also in Delhi where my freinds have a small educational centre for poor children, some, who are otherwise tied to thier beds during the day so they don't get harmed, their parents let them come to the school as its a safe place. It's on the edge of a slum area.
They also do basic teaching on health, sanitation etc ).
How complicated is it to do something?
