Shortened draft:
The OpenAustralia Foundation is an independent, charity organisation. We rely on the contributions of people like you to create new tools to transform our democracy.
Donations over $2 are tax deductible.
charity -> charitable (used in that context). Also DGR status is essential to say because that means something on top of being a charity. It's about the specifics of our tax status. It could go in small type somewhere but it definitely needs to be there.
Maybe:
The OpenAustralia Foundation is an independent, Australian charity. We rely on the contributions of people like you to create new tools to transform our democracy. Donations over $2 are tax deductible.
I think the technical tax status could be small text, here's vinnies example (super small) https://www.vinnies.org.au/donate
Small text:
The OpenAustralia Foundation is endorsed by the Australian Taxation Office as a Deductible Gift Recipient. Donations over $2 are tax deductible.
This has been implemented.
After looking at lots of other orgs donation pages, I think we could be more energetic and involve the person more—it's pretty awesome that they want to get involved like this. I think something like this could be more effective:
Your support enables us to build and maintain projects that inform and empower people with real information about our society and government. The OpenAustralia Foundation is an independent, strictly non-partisan charity, powered by tax deductible contributions from people like you.
This latest version has been implemented, but without the change in title. Leaving it as 'donate' for now.
