Many major donors route their charity via more than 2,000  Private Ancillary Funds or PAFs.

PAFs have particular requirements when making grants to other bodies.

After changes to the legislation in 2025, the Noosa Community Foundation can now accept donations directly from PAF’s.  That means you can make one donation to us and, if you wish, specify the charity or type of charity you would like to support in the Noosa region.  We will distribute your donation according to your preferences to DGR1 charities servicing the Noosa region.

To discuss your particular requirements and transfer arrangements, please have your PAF manager or yourself email us on reception@noosa.foundation to arrange a meeting to facilitate a grant to Noosa charities.
