There is no private benefit from this purpose apart from costs associated with its administration.

These benefits are demonstrated through feedback from the appropriately funded charity. Assistance will only be extended to other charities where there is no harm flowing from this purpose. The charity’s immediate beneficiaries are those charities obtaining funding from the charity. The ultimate beneficiaries are those individuals and organisations who are the beneficiaries of the funded charity. Assistance will only be extended to other charities where there is no private benefit to any individual or organisation from their involvement with the charity, or where the private benefit is declared to be no more than incidental.
