Charities & Not-For-Profits

Starting your own charity is not out of reach.

If you’re like us and want to invest your time, skills and money in philanthropy, we can provide first-hand experience and advice on how to go about this.

Whether you’re making donations to a number of causes, creating a capital base to provide long term funding, or are an existing charity or Not-For-Profit in need of assistance, we’re here to help every step of the way.

We can assist you to set up and successfully maintain your own charity (either by Private or Public Ancillary Fund) by:

  • Helping you determine what your charity will achieve
  • Registering with the Australian Charities and Not-For-Profit Commission (ACNC)
  • Applying to the ATO for Deductible Gift Recipient status (DGR), as a Public Benevolent Institution (PBI) or as Health Promotion Charity (HPC)
  • Assisting with managing your ongoing compliance obligations with both the ACNC and the ATO
  • Assisting with your monthly, quarterly and annual planning

We’re passionate about working with charities and are exceptionally proud of the work that we have achieved with Ronald McDonald House over the past 16 years.
