Gold Coast Womens’ Cancer Advocacy Inc.
WCS Gold Coast have now officially formed Gold Coast Womens’ Cancer Advocacy Inc as a DGR registered charity to ensure we can support Gold Coast women with cancer into the future. We intend to keep supplying all that we have been able to in the past and hope to raise funds and grants to build a Gold Coast Womens Cancer WELLNESS CENTRE to provide all of the services we are now not able to access. We have many volunteers working on the project and would love it to come to fruition THIS YEAR.
We currently have 789 members as of June 2024 and are growing at approximately one new member per day, so we are desperate for a SAFE SPACE where women can have a cuppa and a chat, collect information, and take advantage of the various services including massage, counselling, therapies, see & hear professionals, allied health and alternative therapists for FREE.
Cancer Council Qld has closed its operations on the Gold Coat permanently so we will be required to fill this gap also.
For a donation to be tax deductible, it must be made to an organisation endorsed as a deductible gift recipient (DGR).
It must also be a genuine gift – you cannot receive any benefit from the donation. This means that purchases from a charity, such as raffle tickets, items or food cannot be claimed as tax deductible gifts. The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) endorses organisations as deductible gift recipients, not the ACNC.
It is important to remember that not all charities are DGR-endorsed, and there are specific requirements that charities must meet to be endorsed as a deductible gift recipient. To find out if a charity has DGR endorsement, visit the ACNC Charity Register and search for its name. Gold Coast Womens’Cancer Advocacy Inc.
Click on the charity’s name to see its details on the Register. In the top right-hand corner, click on the icon that says ‘Will my donation be tax deductible?’
Organisations that are endorsed as deductible gift recipients (DGRs) are entitled to receive donations that are deductible from the donor’s income tax. This means when a donor makes a gift or contribution to a DGR endorsed charity, they may be able to claim a tax deduction. The amount of the claim will depend on the type of gift or contribution they make.
The ACNC is responsible for registering organisations as charities, and the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) is responsible for endorsing organisations as DGRs.
It is important to remember that not all charities are eligible for DGR endorsement.
Soon you will be able to Donate using the Safe and Secure PalPal donation link to Gold Coast Womens’ Cancer Advocacy Inc as a DGR registered charity , to help build a Gold Coast Womens Cancer WELLNESS CENTRE to provide all of the services we are now not able to access. We have many volunteers working on the project and would love it to come to fruition THIS YEAR.
