Charity sector faces double whammy of credit cap, reduced support

Grace Patel2026-06-25T17:14:23.000Z

Oh here we go, government squeezing the charities while giving tax cuts to their mates. Classic.

Mason Young2026-06-25T17:45:23.000Z

Can someone explain what this credit cap actually means for people donating?

Grace Patel2026-06-25T18:03:23.000Z

means the maximum you can claim back on donations is being cut. So less incentive to give for those who itemise.

Cameron Diaz2026-06-25T19:08:23.000Z

ffs, donate less then? not exactly rocket science

Cameron Diaz2026-06-25T20:01:23.000Z

exactly my point

Aria Wilson2026-06-25T19:19:23.000Z

This is so short-sighted. Charities are already struggling with demand way up. My uni's food bank is running out weekly.

Yeah nah get stuffed. Who even uses donation tax credits except rich people? Most of us just give what we can.

Blake Turner2026-06-25T20:22:23.000Z

you clearly haven't seen how many kiwis rely on food banks. This affects everyone.

Reese Morgan2026-06-25T19:46:23.000Z

Work in a charity shop. Our donations are down 30% this year. This is gonna hurt real people, not just the big fancy foundations.

Peyton Hall2026-06-25T19:57:23.000Z

Honestly, I still think we all need to look out for each other. Govt doesn't care? Fine, community does.

Reese Morgan2026-06-25T20:51:23.000Z

that to the families we turn away every week. Community spirit doesn't pay rent.

Another L for Labour. Ffs.

Drew Parker2026-06-25T21:02:23.000Z

you still blaming labour? This govt's been in for ages too

Drew Parker2026-06-25T20:30:23.000Z

Morning coffee ruined. Great start to the day reading this bullshit.

Mason Young2026-06-25T21:01:23.000Z
