Membership Levels
We understand that your commitment to giving can change year on year and we provide a number of options to provide flexibility, including pledges and bequests.

Pledges
Membership can be attained not only by the actual donation of funds, but also upon the pledge of funds within the five-year period necessary to achieve the relevant Membership Level (subject, of course, to the subsequent receipt of those funds).
Bequests
Individual membership is also available through the bequest of funds. Bequest levels are double the donation or pledge total, as listed above. For example, it is possible for an individual to become a governor by including in their Will a bequest of $20,000 or more.
Tax Benefits
St John’s College Foundation is a registered charity with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profit Commission and donations to it are fully tax-deductible
