Make a Donation

This is where we ask you for money - at least we’re up front about it!

We have an ambitious fund-raising target of $5,000,000 and you know what? We don’t need any more than that. Once that goal is achieved we’ll be able to provide multiple scholarships every year just from the interest!

Every donation you make over $2 is tax deductible because The Pinnacle Foundation is registered as a charitable institution in NSW and was granted Deductible Gift Recipient status by the Australian Tax Office.

All donations are displayed and processed in Australian dollars though Pinnacle’s banking partner, Westpac.

We’ve made it really easy for you to donate to Pinnacle. How about setting up an easily affordable regular donation? For the cost of drink (or if you are feeling more generous a cheap meal out) you can make a real difference for one of our inspiring LGBT scholarship recipients. Chances are you won’t even miss the few dollars.

Or if you prefer you can bless us with a single tax deductible donation for which we will be forever grateful.

Online we can accept Direct Debit from your bank account, Visa or MasterCard.

We’ve made it really easy for you to give generously and donate through our banking partner Westpac in any of the following ways:

Cheques are a little old fashioned but we still love them! Send yours to:

The Pinnacle Foundation
PO Box 990
Potts Point NSW 1335

And make sure you include a return address so we can provide you tax deductible receipt.

BIG Donations and Remembering Us in Your Will

Sure, we’ve made it easy to make bite-sized donations or regular contributions here, but that doesn’t mean we don’t want some really big ones too! For some of you, leaving an enduring legacy in this world is really important. Lots of people leave money or their estate to charities, good and not-so-good causes alike (such as the Salvos, or their pet Snookums). Just think about the amazing leap towards our $5m goal that a substantial bequest such as this could give Pinnacle! We’d really love to chat with you about this. We’re very open to your ideas, for example, creating a scholarship for a specific vocation or skill in your name. That way, every year, your legacy could be helping light the spark within, for one or maybe several inspirational LGBT youth. Your scholarship could become hotly contested every year, and lead to some stunningly successful graduates in your chosen field (law, music or a trade?), whatever studies as long as it fits our criteria. And of course you’d be helping young LGBTs who might otherwise have never had this chance.

Just give Paul Clark a call on 0409 328 607 to talk turkey. This is a really exciting way to do something worthwhile…..‘cos you can’t take it with you!

We’ll love you forever.
