Tax Benefits

Each year many individuals, families, community organisations and businesses generously lend their support to LEI by way of donation or gift.

Lions Eye Institute Limited is a registered Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR).   Donations of $2 or more are tax deductible.

Under Australia's taxation laws most types of gifts to DGRs are tax deductible. There are various limits depending on the amount of the gift, valuation and other factors.   LEI encourages its donors to take advice from a reputable professional who will assist you to align your personal taxation and estate planning needs with your desire to contribute to LEI's essential medical research programs.
