Deductible gift recipients

Overview

A deductible gift recipient (DGR) is an entity or fund that can receive tax deductible gifts. There are two types of DGR endorsement:

  • An entity that has DGR endorsement in its own right
  • An entity that is only a DGR in relation to a fund, authority or institution it operates. In this instance, only gifts to the fund, authority or institution are tax deductible.

For further information on deductible gift recipients, visit theĀ Tax deductible donations page on the Tax Office website.
