Make a Donation and Reduce Your Tax Bill!

• As an Australian tax payers you can reduce the amount of tax you owe by giving a gift of more than $2 to an approved charity (deductible gift recipient).
• There is no upper limit on the amount of donations you can claim a tax deduction for – but you can’t use a large donation to create a tax loss.

Oxfam Australian has launched their 2010 Tax Time Fundraising Appeal. The appeal focuses on Oxfam’s work in with the people of Timor-Leste who are experiencing severe food shortages. Imagine not having enough food to eat. Or watching your family become sick because all you have to feed them is pumpkin.

• Every year in Timor-Leste (formerly East Timor), families face a hungry season where they experience severe food shortages for at least a couple of months.
• But drought and rising food prices now mean the hungry season lasts for up to five months.
• Not having a good variety of food for nutrition is as much of a problem as food shortages. Without a balanced diet including protein and essential vitamins, children run the risk of chronic malnutrition.
• Oxfam Australia’s nutrition and health program is helping families produce healthy meals that protect their children against malnutrition.
