Donating is only tax deductible when the recipient has deductible gift recipient (DGR) status at the time of your gift and the donation is truly a gift, not something you get value for (eg, raffle tickets). From 1 July 2026 the $2 threshold was removed (backdated to 1 July 2024).
Don't forget to keep your receipt and check DGR eligibility before claiming.
