Gifts of works of art
The Samstag Museum of Art is registered to receive eligible works of art
for the UniSA Art Collection. Gifts are exempt from capital gains tax.
Donors can claim the cost of valuations and, in most cases, claim the full
market value of the gift as a tax deduction, and can elect to spread their
donation over a period of up to five years. For further information
please contact the
Samstag
Museum of Art Director.
Bequests
Sometimes called the 'ultimate gift', contributing to UniSA through our
bequest programme allows you to retain full use of your assets during your lifetime
and still make a significant offering to UniSA through your will.
There are several bequest opportunities at the University. Your gift could
fund a scholarship for a disadvantaged student or an important research
project that may make a real difference to the lives of others.
Corporate giving
Sponsorship is available to industry for a wide range of events and activities, such as academic programs, research chairs, facilities and spaces, seminars and conferences and corporate named scholarships.
Gifts in kind
Gifts in kind are non-monetary gifts or services and examples range from laboratory equipment, computers and text books to printing, wine sponsorship and auction items for fundraising events.
UniSA Staff Giving
As well as the giving options outlined above, UniSA staff can also support their chosen University giving program through the Workplace Giving initiative which enables staff to give through their salary as a pre-tax deduction.
