Through the AFAP in Australia
Donations made through the AFAP are tax deductible in Australia. As such, this is the recommended method for Australian residents.
AFAP and the Vista Project are working jointly in the delivery of aid to communities overseas. AFAP closely monitors the work of the Vista Project to ensure the delivery of relief and/or development programs in China/Tibet in terms of project outcomes.
AFAP allows the Vista Project to use donated funds or donations in kind only for benevolent activities undertaken by the Vista Project. We the Vista Project do not have DGR status in our own right and are relying on AFAP's DGR endorsed status by the ATO. AFAP retains the ultimate discretion whether to distribute any funds in accordance with the preference expressed by the donor.
