Q. Our organisation does not have tax concession charity (TCC) status or deductible gift recipient (DGR) status. Can we still apply?

A. No. Reichstein Foundation is only able to accept applications from groups who are incorporated and have TCC. Preference is given to groups who have DGR as well.

The Public Interest Law Clearinghouse (PILCH) has information on how to obtain TCC and DGR. http://www.pilch.org.au/community_org/ and http://www.pilch.org.au/Assets/Files/DGRLizTL.pdf

Q. To get around not having TCC can my organisation apply through an auspice agency which has TCC and DGR?

A. No.We can only be accept applications where there is a genuine partnership between the applicant (auspice) and groups involved in the project. For an explanation of auspicing see http://www.pilch.org.au/auspicing

Q. Can my organisation apply to more than one trust or foundation for the same project?

A. Yes as long as you let us know. Our application form asks you to list which other funders you have applied to.
