What is a DGR?
A deductible gift recipient (DGR) is an organisation that is entitled to receive income tax deductible gifts and deductible contributions. The majority of DGRs are endorsed by the Tax Office. The only DGRs that do not need to be endorsed are those listed by name in the income tax law. DGRs listed by name in the tax law include organisations such as Amnesty International Australia and the Australian Sports Foundation. They also include prescribed private funds.
