What will my donation go towards?
This year, the choice is yours - a cause at Terrace which means the most to you. You can choose from our two key Foundation Funds:
(1) Building Fund - Stage II of our Masterplan begins with a covered outdoor basketball court, a dynamic space designed to enhance the physical and social wellbeing of our students.
(2) Bursary Fund - The 150 Year Bursary provides a full, six-year education to a deserving young man who otherwise wouldn’t have the opportunity to attend Terrace; covering tuition, books, technology, uniforms, and more.
How do I make my donation?
Join us here on Giving Day - from midday, 20 August through to midday, 21 August - to make your donation live. It doesn't matter where you are in the world, you can join us online. The whole community is here helping us reach our goal.
If you would prefer to talk to a Terrace volunteer, student or staff member in person, please contact our Giftline on 0458 788 319.
Also, if you miss Giving Day, you can still make your donation here after the 24 hour challenge has expired.
Every gift counts!
Is my gift tax-deductible? And how?
Yes, your gift is tax deductible! Every dollar you give on Giving Day can be claimed in your tax return.
Giving Day is an initiative of The Gregory Terrace Foundation, a philanthropic foundation set up to distribute funds for charitable purposes. The Foundation is a public company limited by guarantee registered with the ACNC (Australian Charities and Not-for-Profit Commission) with DGR (Donor Gift Recipient) status. This allows us to receipt your tax-deductible gifts.
Can I make my donation over the phone?
Yes! Please call our Giftline on 0458 788 319 to show your support today.
Our gift hotline will also be available right through to 01 September. You can make your donation ahead of Giving Day (20-21 August) either by calling the hotline or online at www.terracegiving.com.au. This allows you to leave a message of encouragement for the whole community or you can make an anonymous donation.
Every gift, no matter the size, will help make this one day count for Terrace!
Will I receive a receipt for my donation?
Yes! If you make your donation online on Giving Day, you will simultaneously be issued a receipt to your nominated email address.
Donations made by phone will also be acknowledged with a receipt, once the gift has been processed (within 48 hours).
Will I be able to make a donation on this site after the 24 hours has passed?
Yes! Our Terrace Giving Day page will continue to receive gifts even when the clock has stopped. But please don't wait - help us to smash this target in 24 hours. Let's make this one day count!
What does it mean to make an 'anonymous' donation?
As a College we wish to celebrate our heroes by publishing the names of our donors in If the Honours list. If however, you choose to remain anonymous on this site, we will also publish your donation on this site as 'anonymous'. And your giving will be included as anonymous in the publication of the Honours List in the respective year.
If you would like to talk about this further, please call Doreen Awabdy from our Foundation Team on (07) 3214 5210 or email foundation@terrace.qld.edu.au for more information.
What payment methods are accepted?
We are able to process all forms of cards including Visa, Mastercard, and Amex. This year we have also introduced Apple Pay and Google Pay. We want to make it possible for you to give in a way that suits you and extend giving options to cheque or bank transfer. Please call our Giftline on 0458 788 319 and we can help walk you through the process.
