How it Works
IIMPACT Australia collects donations as a registered charity in Australia. We are regulated by the ACNC and all donations are tax deductible in Australia.
We deliver educational services in India via Learning Centres managed by our partner, IIMPACT India and their selected NGOs across the country. IIMPACT India identifies rural areas with significant gender gaps in literacy. Via partner NGOs, they engage with the village community to secure their commitment – to support girl children attendance and to provide a physical facility that meets safety and educational requirements. IIMPACT India has developed the educational curriculum, teacher recruitment and training programs and services delivery methodology as well as outcome management systems. They are accountable to us for delivery of services to Learning Centres sponsored by our Australian donors and provide a quarterly report.
Each Learning Centre educates 30 girl children between the ages of 6 -14, in a safe and trusted faculty close to their homes. With over 15 years of experience in delivering outcomes, iimpact India is 90% funded by Indian corporate sponsors and charitable foundations. Over 1,500 Learning Centres are now operational and 100,000 girl children have been educated since 2003.
Operating Model
Over the last 18 years, IIMPACT has implemented an operating model that has been refined based on field experience.
- SELECT: a village and community to establish a Learning Centre
- BUILD: a physical facility with the community and secure teachers and materials
- DELIVER: quality primary education and life skills via selected delivery partners
- ENGAGE: children, parents and the community to make learning sustainable
Tax deductibility
IIMPACT Australia has been approved as a Deductible Gift Recipient by the Australian Tax Office. You will receive a formal receipt from IIMPACT Australia which means you can claim a full tax deduction on your donation.
You may also donate to us via our partners: PayPal Giving Fund (e.g. via our facebook page), Good2Give or Benevity (via your employer) or GoFundMe (when our volunteers run campaigns). In all cases, you will receive a tax deduction for donations to IIMPACT Australia.
Straight-through donation guarantee
We guarantee the application of 100% of donor funds to the education of the girl child. This means all administrative and fund raising costs will be funded separately. Note this is also the case in the delivery of services in India: iimpact India funds all administrative costs separately so that your donation goes directly to fund the education of the girl child.
Given that only 64-75% of individual donations to major Australian charities reaches overseas NGOs, we believe this will continue to distinguish iimpact’s work and dedication to educating India’s girl children.
