What can I raise funds for?

The Australian Sports Foundation is dedicated to raising money for the development of sport in Australia, which is the basis of our tax-deductible status.

For a community club, this could include: 

• Facilities (capital works, maintenance, and hire/lease) 
• Equipment (purchase and maintenance/repairs) 
• Coaching (payment of staff or contractors) 
• Travel (training camps, competitions etc) 
• Hardship funds (paying rego fees and other costs for players experiencing financial hardship) 
• Medical costs, player welfare programs 
• General operational costs (i.e. to “keep the lights on”) 
• ‘Future Fund’ (i.e. to ensure the sustainability of the club into the future) 

For an athlete this could include (but is not limited to): 

• Equipment and uniform (purchase and maintenance/repairs)
• Travel (training camps, competitions etc)
• Medical costs, physio & conditioning
• Coaching

These lists are not intended to be exhaustive. 

If you have a campaign in mind and you aren't sure if it's eligible, please contact our Support Team.

As a general rule, if your campaign aims to develop Australian sport in any way, it’s likely to qualify!
