Andrew PhillipsThis project does not offer tax deductable receipts as we are offering in kind rewards. Working through the specific partners: * Church of All Nations Community Support Agency (CAN) is a charitable not for profit unincorporated association of the Uniting Church in Australia. It is a registered fundraising body and is presently running a winter appeal for those who wish to make tax deductable donations. This project does not represent a significant proportion of their overall activities and while CAN is underwriting the project's success it will not directly financially benefit from the funds raised through this campaign. * Estate Computers is presently a program of CAN but it will be separated into a not for profit social enterprise once it is financially sustainable. Most funds raised through this campaign will be directed to Estate Computers. * Carlton Neighbourhood Learning Centre Inc (CNLC) is a charitable institution but is not able to accept tax deductable donations. The portion of funds raised to cover the training costs as part of each Family Digital Inclusion Package will be paid to CNLC. * Internet services that form part of the Family Digital Inclusion Packages will be purchased from an ISP who will not otherwise be a partner to this project * Other rewards have been provided at no cost to this project13y
