With the end of financial year only a few days away there is limited time left to make donations to deductible gift recipients.  The benefit for the recipient is that they receive funds to continue their good work. The benefit for you is that you may be able to claim the donation as a tax deduction which results in you having less income tax to pay for this financial year.  

As there are a lot of worthy causes to choose from we recommend that you consider organisations which provide critical support.  While some organisations have significant marketing budgets and are well known there are others which you may not have heard of which provide great assistance in your local area.  

Some of the organisations which we support are: Beyond Blue, Camp Quality, Cancer Council, Capricorn Rescue Helicopter, Doctors without Borders, Edmund Rice Foundation, Guide Dogs Qld, Horse Riding for Disabled, Leukaemia Foundation, Mater Hospital Appeal, Qld Meals on Wheels, Red Cross both in Australia and International, Royal Flying Doctor Service, St Joseph's Cathedral Conservation Fund, St Vincent De Paul, State Emergency Service Queensland, Shelter Box Australia, Spinal Cure Australia, Spinal Injuries Association, Sporting Wheelies, Starlight Foundation, World Vision.  

Ensure that you receive and retain receipts for any donations made.  

The amount you give is totally your decision.
