Donate

If you are interested in donating to a particular pillar of work, we encourage you to read through the Terms of Donations and then get in touch with us.

Terms of Donations

  • DAK International Network (DIN) collaborates with approved International Partners to aid disadvantaged communities, mainly in developing countries. A list of our partners is available on our website, with details about their projects accessible on each partner’s site.
  • We monitor and evaluate partner programs, including in-country visits by DIN Directors and staff. However, we do not guarantee program effectiveness or sustainability, acknowledging inherent risks in international development. We assess and monitor these risks when approving partners, making grants, and continually thereafter.
  • We welcome untied donations to support our partners at DIN’s discretion and also accept donations earmarked for specific partners, subject to Board approval. DIN does not charge administrative fees; all donations are distributed to our partners, minus any bank fees.
  • All administration and staff expenses are paid for by the DAK Foundation and as such, our low-cost model accepts donations of A$10,000 or more unless agreed otherwise. Tax-deductible receipts are issued promptly, and annual grant summaries are posted on our website.
