I've been watching this case for a while now, so it's disappointing to see it fizzle out this way. It'll be interesting to see how the NFP and charity sector reacts.
Australia's privacy watchdog, the @OAICgov has scrapped an investigation into a massive data breach in which details of up to 50,000 donors from 70 charities was leaked onto the dark web. #AusPol #charities buff.ly/4dkrjPb

You too can change the world for only 'five bucks'. Emerging philanthropist Brianna Kerr is hoping to inspire more young people to give regularly, and has just launched the FiveBucks site, with the backing of @ACFInspires. #Philanthropy #Giving buff.ly/4dm1PQW

The good folk at @OurCommunityAU and @NFPdirectors are among hundreds trawling through this 458-page report into #philanthropy and #giving. The sector will be hopeful that (this time) the recommendations will actually be followed up. #AusPol #charities #notforprofits
The Government has tabled the final report of our inquiry into philanthropy in Australia: Future foundations for giving. The report makes several recommendations to strengthen the foundations of philanthropy, supporting the Government’s goal of doubling giving by 2030.
