What is DGR?
In simple terms it allows individuals or businesses to claim tax relief for any donations, thereby making it much more appealing for donations to occur.

Why a “Building Fund”?
The P&C cannot be registered for DGR status as “education-related bodies” can only use DGR funds for building and/or scholarships, therefore as we invest in many other non-building work we cannot be granted this status. To comply we created the NSPS P&C Building Fund managed by the P&C. It has its own constitution and bank account and is managed through the same governance model.

How does it work?
Money donated to the school for building projects goes into the “building fund” and the business making the donation can claim a tax deduction. The money in this fund can only be used for building projects.
