I cannot respond chapter and verse on that. The place to go to find that information is the ATO website as part of the reporting that is currently in place. But I have some advice for you. Thankyou to the advisers here.

In the last financial year, the donations received were $471,711,556, the distribution from those funds was $117,072,842 and the closing value of the prescribed funds total was $1,234,105,542. The ATO website also provides public information on the distribution by categories. The categories are health, education, research, welfare, defence, environment, industry trade and design, family, international affairs, sport and recreation, philanthropic trusts, cultural organisations, fire and emergency organisations, and other.
