ShareGift Australia Information

ShareGift Australia’s purpose is to make it easy and cost effective for shareholders to grow philanthropy in Australia through the donation of shares and related proceeds to charity. Australia has one of the highest levels of share ownership in the world (6.48 million people). Each year, more and more Australians are looking to leverage their shareholdings as part of their giving strategy. A fraction of ASX’s current market capitalisation of around $1.5 trillion would easily generate a huge shift in philanthropic funding in Australia. ShareGift Australia is the only service of its kind in Australia - a public ancillary fund established by a trust deed for the purpose of providing funding to the community. We are a not-for-profit organisation governed by a board of volunteer directors, that is a Tax Concession Charity (TCC) and has Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) Item 2 status. ShareGift Australia is regulated by the ATO, ASIC, AUSTRAC, ACNC and endorsed by the Australian Securities Exchange, Australian Shareholders’ Association and the Stockbrokers and Financial Advisers Association.
