Building Fund and Library Fund Contributions
Did you know that contributions to either of the Building Fund or the Library Fund over $2 are tax deductable?
Gisborne Secondary School has established a School Building Fund Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) and School Library DGR which meet all ATO requirements in order to obtain ATO DGR endorsement. Separate bank accounts have been established for donated funds and there are restrictions on spending donated funds.
The voluntary contributions to the Building Fund enable Gisborne Secondary School Council to make improvements to the buildings such as painting or floor coverings. The contributions to the Library fund can be used to improve the library furniture and fixtures or for books and collections.
