PAF Membership

For those wanting to support the Impact Circle through their Private Ancillary Fund (PAF) or Family Foundation, rather via an individual tax deductible donation. This is not a problem and much appreciated, however current tax rulings require the PAF membership donation to go directly to a charity.

PAFs are Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) Item 2 entities. Australian Communities Foundation (ACF), of which The Impact Circle is a sub-fund, is also a DGR Item 2 entity. Item 2 organisations are grant making entities that only collect and distribute funds and are not entitled to give to each other. To overcome this, your generous PAF donation needs to go directly to a DGR1 non-profit organisation that actively undertakes charitable and other programs. The Impact Circle only accepts grant applicants from charities with DGR1 status.

A minimum pledge of $1,000 entitles you to membership of The Impact Circle, including one vote to select the recipient of our $100,000 Primary Grant (s). In consultation with you, your PAF donation will go to The Impact Circle finalist and the receipt will be issued directly to your PAF by the receiving organisation.

If you would like to join via your PAF, please email membership@theimpactcircle.com.au
