Donations

Please support the work of the Society with a one-off or regular donations.  Donations to the Library and Scholarship Funds are tax-deductible.

You may support this work with a donation via a:

  • credit card, through the Society’s GiveNow account, for the current fundraising drive for the RSNSW Bicentennial Postgraduate Scholarships.
  • a direct bank deposit using the pdf Donation Form, allowing you to donate to the tax-deductible Library and Scholarship Funds, or to make a General Donation (which is not tax-deductible).

Bequests

Since its inception, the Society has benefited greatly from generous donations and bequests from both members and other benefactors. Most of the Society’s prestigious awards and much of its library were established as a consequence of bequests.  

If you are able, please consider leaving a legacy to the future by remembering the Society in your will, thereby increasing our ability to make lasting and influential contributions to intellectual life in New South Wales and to Australia’s future. 

If this is of interest to you, please see our Bequests information page
