Can I get a receipt for the money I have raised?

Yes, we can provide you with a receipt for donations (including gifts-in-kind) over $2. We’ll post it to you, so we’ll need your name and postal details.

Remember though, raffle or art union ticket purchases; purchases of goods like chocolates, merchandise, or services; and purchases made at an auction, are not tax deductible.

Can I get a receipt for goods or services that I donate?

Yes, we’d be happy to do that. When we’ve have received the tax receipt for the goods or services you have donated, we will post you a receipt. We’ll need your name and postal details.

Can you provide receipts for people who donate at my fundraising event?

Certainly. We can provide delegates with a receipt for donations (including gifts-in-kind) over $2. We’ll post it to them, so we’ll need their names and postal details.

Remember though, raffle or art union ticket purchases; purchases of goods like chocolates, merchandise, or services; and purchases made at an auction, are not tax deductible.

I would like to make on-going donations, how can I do this?

We’d love that! You can join the Bandaged Bear Club, which provides a system for regular donations. It’s flexible so that you can choose how often you donate—monthly, quarterly, bi-annually and annually—as well as how much you would like to donate.

There’s a minimum of $10/month. You can decide to nominate to donate by automatic transfer or via your credit card. Have a look at our Regular Giving Program.

I am having a celebration event and would like my guests to donate in lieu of gifts, what do I need to do?

We are able to provide you with Celebration Envelopes. These are reply-paid envelopes that include a donation slip to give to your guests prior to, or on the day, of your event. Your guests have the option of posting the envelopes directly to us with a cheque or their credit card details, for which we issue a receipt.

After these have been processed, we'll send you a letter confirming those who made donations (for privacy, we don't disclose the donation amount) along with the total raised, so you can thank them as well.
