Guide to donating to charities – Everyday shopping – CHOICE

With so many charities asking for support, CHOICE offers a bunch of tips to make sure your donation really counts.

Great article demonstrating a variety of questions that should be asked when considering making a donation to any cause.

Research, research, research. You have a right to ask questions, but more importantly, you should be asking ‘what is the impact value‘ of any charity you choose to support.

A simple and effective measure is to directly divide the total amount of revenue raised by the organisation by the total number of times they are providing a positive impact / service delivery.

Kicking off our EOFY Appeal: Just a few dollars can support a sick child’s life…

Stephen is 4 and has Acute Lymphatic Leukemia. He also suffers Asthma complications. Combined, these conditions make life at home stressful and difficult, with vigilant monitoring required.

The life of a sick child can be challenging for them and their families in ways we might not even consider – emotionally, practically and financially. TLC for Kids’ RAPID TLC Service supports people through these challenges. This can range from medical and lifestyle equipment to manage life at home, to a day of relaxation and respite for Mum and Dad, to covering the utility bills of a struggling family, to helping fulfil a child’s dream, to assisting families through the bereavement process when tragedy does occur.

Follow the link if you would like to contribute, event a couple of dollars, to the valuable work provided by TLC for Kids, for kids like Stephen.
