Charity status is conferred by the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC) on entities or trusts. Being a registered charity has income tax advantages and some entities may also be eligible to be Deductible Gift Recipients (DGR), Public Benevolent Institutions (PBI) or Health Promotion Charities (HPC), which have other benefits and commensurate responsibilities.
 

Governology can facilitate applications to become a charity, DGR, PBI or HPC status and assist with ongoing compliance obligations.
