Plain language

What MHCG's not-for-profit status means

A short summary of what our registered status does — and does not — mean for members, contributors and the wider community.

  • MHCG operates for community purposes.
  • MHCG's resources are used to advance those purposes.
  • Surpluses are retained for community and reasonable operating purposes.
  • Members do not receive profits merely because they are members.
  • Contributions are voluntary.
  • Contributions are NOT tax-deductible.
  • Not-for-profit status is not the same as charity status.
  • Not-for-profit status does not automatically provide Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) status.
  • Governance and reporting continue to be managed under the constitution and applicable NSW requirements.
MHCG's registration with NSW Fair Trading records the change of objects and constitution. It does not certify every constitutional provision, endorse compliance with every legal obligation, confer charity status, or confer Deductible Gift Recipient status.
