ShareGift Australia provides a value giving platform designed specifically for shareholders and Australian listed companies that is sustainable and transparent.

ShareGift Australia converts share parcels to cash, and donates the proceeds to charity. We work with leading stockbroker partners to facilitate the sale of shares (of any size), without charging brokerage so Australian shareholders can claim a tax deduction for the full market value of their shares.

Endorsed by the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) and the Australian Shareholders' Association (ASA), ShareGift is the only service of its kind in Australia and is based on the model of ShareGift UK that has generated over £25 million for support to over 2,500 UK charities.

Australia has one of the highest levels of share ownership in the world (36% or 6.48 million people). Each year, more and more Australians are seeking new methods for their charitable giving. A fraction of ASX's current market capitalisation of around $1,300 billion would easily generate a huge shift in philanthropic funding in Australia.

Since 2012, ShareGift Australia has returned compound annual growth in our distributions to the Australian community. As at 31 March 2017, we have donated more than $1.48 million to over 450 charities.

Why donate to ShareGift?

Every dollar invested in ShareGift Australia enables us to reach more Australian shareholders, which in turn drives more donations of shares that we convert to cash and distribute to Australian charities.

We are cause-neutral in our charitable funding from large organisations to small, grassroots community-led organisations, but recipient organisations must hold eligible Deductible Gift Recipient 1 status.
