Why we need donors

SANCA Western Cape, a registered Non-Profit Organisation (002-912 NPO) and Public Benefit Organisation (PBO 18/11/13/3062), is also registered for fundraising purposes in terms of Section 5 of the Fundraising Act [Act 107 of 1978].

A subsidy from the Department of Social Development, the organisation’s primary source of income, covers approximately 55% of gross expenditure. The National Lottery Distribution Trust Fund (NLDTF), the Community Chest of the Western Cape, a range of corporate donors, trusts and foundations and clients with the ability to pay a nominal fee for services, supplement SANCA Western Cape’s income. Although there are affordable prescribed fees for prevention, training and counselling services, no client who cannot afford to pay for services is ever turned away.

Donor Tax Exemption

Donations exceeding R 100 per annum are tax deductible in South Africa, under Section 18A of the Income Tax Act. We issue each and every individual or funder donating more than R100 with an annual tax receipt.(South Africans can submit the receipt when completing their tax return forms).

Please consider supporting our fight against the scourge of substance abuse which continues to tear families apart, make our streets less safe, and lay waste to our communities.
