Following five months of investigation by the ACNC, the charitable status of Care 4 Kids Foundation Australia Ltd and Indigenous Foundation of Australia Ltd has been revoked. The ACNC ruled that the charities’ operations were not solely charitable.
Registration with the ACNC entitles charities to apply for a range of Commonwealth charity tax concessions, including deductible gift recipient status, and income tax exemption. Charities lose these benefits if their charity status is revoked
