The ACME Foundation aims to support not-for-profit organisations working in areas that overlap with our passions. The ACME name is a rough acronym of these causes (as well as a reminder of our previous interest in Roadrunner cartoons).
A - Animal welfare, Aged care, Aviation
C - Children & young people, Climate change, Conservation
M - Motherhood, Mother Earth
E - Environment, Education, Eyesight
Each year a proportion of the ACME Foundation’s assets is donated to a limited number of eligible charities holding DGR (Deductible Gift Recipient) status as approved by the Australian Tax Office. These may be Australian-based charities or overseas charities that have a connection, and ATO approval, in Australia.
