WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW TO GET STARTED
When you are holding a fundraising event for a charity it is important to be clear about how you are doing it. You must keep records of your income and, if relevant, your expenditure and be prepared to show them to people.
If your fundraiser involves your friends making donations to Cure Cancer Australia, then they are entitled to a tax deduction. Keep a record of the donors’ names and addresses and the amounts donated. We will issue receipts as soon as we receive the money based on this information.
Please be aware that events which give the supporter something in return, e.g. a lunch or dinner, or goods purchased, auction items, merchandise or raffles do not attract a tax deduction.
Please advise the Cure Cancer office if you wish to use the Foundation’s name in your fundraising. If you plan to approach members of the public on our behalf you must be authorised to do so by the Foundation. We will issue a letter of authority where appropriate.
To kick start your fundraising - please call Jo or Michelle on 1300 134 567 or 02 8072 6188 to discuss your planned fundraising activity, we can’t wait to help you get started.
Thank you so much for your support!
