RAWCS Projects are registered for these different purposes:


RAOAF – Rotary Australia Overseas Aid Fund is an Overseas Aid Fund to provide sustainable development aid in developing countries as identified by the Department of Foreign Affairs or short term relief for disasters.

RABS – Rotary Australia Benevolent Society is a Public Benevolent Fund to register projects within Australia to enable Rotary Clubs and District to provide assistance to people in need within their local or wider community.

RARF – Rotary Australia Relief Fund is a Level 2 Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) fund to enable collection of funds that are not directed at specific projects.
Level 2 DGR Funds CANNOT be spent directly but must be transferred to Level 1 DGR Projects (ie. RAOAF, RABS and RACG Projects).
RARF is administered on a National basis, fully utilising the RAWCS website and our online donation facility to minimise administration costs.

ALL RAWCS projects must be sponsored by an Australian Rotary Club or District and wherever possible endorsed or partnered with a Rotary Club or District overseas. The only exception are some RABS projects that are local and are sponsored and administered by the same Rotary Club or District.

For more information on how to register a project please contact your District RAWCS Co-ordinator or RAWCS Regional Supervisor.
