Update: These are the charities of choice from the community:
- Royal Flying Doctor Service
- Black Dog Institute
- Kids With Cancer Foundation
- Prostate Cancer Foundation Australia
- Pets of the Homeless Australia
We'll be sending donations to those charities this week.
It's the 7th year since we started our very first End of Financial Year charity donation post, and the amount we are donating will be doubled to $20,000 to the top 5 charities voted by our community members. Instead of taking suggestions like our Christmas donations, I will just pick top 30 charities from our last donations that didn't get enough votes. So,
- $20,000 to 5 charities ($4,000 each) picked from a list of 30.
- You guys vote to help me decide which 5 we should be donating to this year.
Here's the list (in alphabetical order):
- Against Malaria Foundation
- Australian Red Cross
- Autism Spectrum Australia
- Big Ears Animal Sanctuary
- Black Dog Institute
- Cambodian Children's Fund
- Charlie Teo Foundation
- Dementia Australia
- Effective Altruism Australia
- HeartKids
- Indigenous Literacy Foundation
- Kids With Cancer Foundation
- Leukaemia Foundation
- Meals on Wheels
- Muslim Aid Australia
- Orange Sky Australia
- OzHarvest
- Pets of the Homeless Australia
- Prostate Cancer Foundation Australia
- Royal Flying Doctor Service
- St Vincent de Paul Society
- Starlight Children's Foundation
- The Children's Hospital at Westmead
- The Fred Hollows Foundation
- The Salvation Army
- The Smith Family
- UNICEF Australia
- William Wilberforce Foundation
- World Vision Australia
- WWF-Australia
Here are the rules / terms:
- Everyone gets 1 vote. Ghost accounts get penalised as per OzBargain rules.
- Poll closes at 11:59pm next Friday 22 June.
- Number of votes will be hidden during the poll, and will be revealed after closes.
- Top 5 will be picked, and donation made during the last 2 weeks of June.
That's all. Here's our past donations page if you want to check out how it worked previously. Let the voting starts!
Profound gratitude for another superb initiative!
