Our Approach
Our approach to charitable giving is simple; we raise, manage and distribute your contributions to enable 100% flow through to our recipients.
We do not deduct any fees or monies from your contributions, allowing us to provide maximum impact to our recipients and their families.
The Crescent Foundation is a registered charity with the Australian Charities and Not-for-Profits Commission, and is endorsed by the Australian Tax Office as an Item 2 Deductible Gift Recipient, known as an ancillary fund (ABN 31 436 754 605)
The Crescent Foundation holds Tax Charity Concession status, therefore, under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 all donations of $2 and over are fully tax-deductible.
This means we are eligible to receive funds from generous individuals and/or organisations and forward the contributions onto ATO approved DGR 1 entities.
All our partners have DGR Item 1 Status.
All the costs and expenses of Crescent Foundation are covered by our corporate supporter, Crescent Wealth and its sister organisations.
