A fantastic way to support a charity like ours, is through donations.
As a registered ACNC charity we are able to receive many different types of donations.
1. CASH DONATION (no Tax Deductible receipt required)
You can do this through our Nambour Charity Store – easy and simple EFTPOS, CASH or CHEQUE.
Or if you would like to make a cash donation and do not require a tax deductible receipt or wish to remain anonymous here are our Bank Details…

2. CASH DONATION with a TAX DEDUCTIBLE Receipt
We have a number of specific fundraisers where you can show your financial support for the work GPAI is doing. By making a monetary donation to GPAI via the Australian Sports Foundation portal you will receive an official tax deductible receipt which will be forwarded by email.
Here are a few Fundraisers you can select from…
- Keep the Lights On (Help us maintain the costs involved to run the charity)
- Pitchin Golf Stage 1 (Help us secure Proof of Concept to build our future)
- First Aid Certificates for Volunteers (Help us provide FREE training for our previous volunteers)
3. 10 Cent Container Program
You or your business or friends can pitchin and collect 10c Containers and either drop them into 89 Currie Street, Nambour 4560 QLD Store or take them to your local DEPOT and use our Charity SCHEME ID number.
We will be notified what region the donation of containers came from and this helps our fundraising efforts tremendously one container at a time.

4. GOLF EQUIPMENT Donations
If you or your family and friends have golf bags, golf clubs, head covers, golf buggies, pull buggies or GOLF BALLS then this is the right DONATION OPTION for you.
With a large Charity Pro Shop in Nambour, a PGA Professional on hand to give advice and a Golf Simulator to test out the equipment, we can say with certainty THIS is our meat and potatoes.
Funds from the Pro Shop keep us tracking, investing in our athletes and golf programs so we need GOOD QUALITY Bags with operating zips and golf clubs. We sold 20,000 Paddock Balls over one Christmas break so we are not as fussy with the quality of golf balls as our disability students sort, grade and clean them all.
We have a number of wonderful DECLUTTER specialists and Golf Clubs (such as the Oxley District Veterans Association and Twin Waters Golf Club) who donate on an ongoing basis.
We are so very grateful and always looking for more support in this area.
As the largest All Abilities Golf Program in Australia, we need all the support we can get.
You can contact PGA Professional/President of GPAI Darrell Dalton on 0407 472 526 to arrange a pick up if you can’t make it in!

6. OTHER ITEMS our charity may find useful
GPAI opened its Gift and Furniture Store December 2016 and this continues to be a wonderful outreach to the community and a place to showcase the wonderful creativity of our disability students.
We do apprecaite DONATIONS of quirky, quality and interesting items we can sell. We don’t sell large furniture anymore as there is limited space however small side tables and small pieces of furniture are still welcome.
One example is a 1902 Timber Jewellery Box made by a GPAI members’ grandfather long ago.
We treasure such items and use them to expand our disability students knowledge base. We have DELFTWARE and Vintage Clowns. You get our drift.
6. STATIONERY AND GIFTWRAPPING is always WELCOME
Tissue paper (white or coloured) gift bags, white paper for printing and more. We have offices and use a lot of stationery and gift wrapping. USE YOUR IMAGINATION. We do!
7. RAW MATERIALS and the UNUSUAL
We are big recyclers. New offcut fabrics, buttons, new zips, ribbon, bits and bobs are our thing. Contact Michelle on 0413 277 976 or ring our Store 07 5476 0365 if you want more info.
8. DONATE YOUR TIME
