All funds raised support Diabetes Australia’s vital work in diabetes research, education, advocacy, and support services. Your fundraising helps us fight for better outcomes for over 1.5 million Australians living with diabetes and those that are at risk.

We recommend using social media, email, posters, and word-of-mouth. Be sure to tag us in your posts and use our hashtag #TeamDiabetesAustralia to be featured on our channels!

We prefer funds to be deposited electronically, but if you receive cash donations, you can deposit them into your own account and transfer the total amount to Diabetes Australia via direct deposit. Don’t forget to include your reference number and notify our team.

Yes, all donations of $2 or more made to Diabetes Australia are tax-deductible. Donors will receive a receipt automatically if donating online.

Of course! But you must seek permission from us first so we can provide you with the correct logo and ensure it’s used within our guidelines.   

Have a chat with our team and we'll guide you through using our logo.
