About Austal

Giving Committee Edict

Austal strives towards helping the community in a number of ways. One in particular is our commitment towards supporting the compassionate works of charity and fundraising activities.

The company has a responsibility to ensure that any donation paid will be spent efficiently and effectively on the purpose(s) intended and that all conditions associated with a donation have been met. Therefore requests for any particular non-profitable cause must provide sufficient information to demonstrate that any contributed funds are predominantly used for the purpose(s) intended and that minimum funds are expended on overhead related items.

Requests for donations should be submitted in writing, on the specific organisation's letterhead and should include the following:

  • An explanation of how the proceeds will be used;
  • A copy of the latest financial reports;
  • A contact person with a contact number; and
  • An address as to where any correspondence may be sent.

As you can imagine, being a compassionate member of the Community, there are always innumerable requests for Austal to donate to causes. Unfortunately, it is not always possible to accede to these requests and we therefore reserve the right to request further information or to reject any request without giving notice or reason.
