In the past year, The Smith Family has reached more than 178,400 children and young people nationally through its proven programs, and supported the education of more than 67,000 students through providing Learning for Life scholarships.
The charity is reliant on donations made by generous Australians to fund its educational programs, enabling children and young people to create better futures for themselves, The Smith Family CEO, Doug Taylor, says.
“If you want to give to a charity that is making a life-changing and tangible difference, plus you’d like a tax-deductible donation, the time to give is now as we come to the end of our Winter Appeal,” says Mr Taylor.
“Every dollar given by supporters is put to good use. We have partnerships with over 780 schools nationally and are located in 91 communities across Australia.
“Donations assist us in delivering our evidence-based programs crucial to helping students engage with their schooling, keep up with their peers and reach their educational potential.
“A tax-deductible donation to a charity before June 30 is a great way to minimise your tax bill. It’s good for the hip pocket and, most importantly, the heart.
“And if it’s outcomes you want for your charity dollar, The Smith Family delivers on that too, with a full breakdown of what we achieve available via our annual report. If you are in a position to donate, The Smith Family would love to hear from you by June 30.”
