Centre for Philanthropy and Nonprofit Studies

The Centre for Philanthropy and Nonprofit Studies was established in 2001 as a QUT Collaborative Centre, and aims to bring to the community the benefits of teaching, research, technology and service relevant to philanthropic and nonprofit communities.

The Centre builds on the work of the Program on Nonprofit Corporations (PONC) established in the School of Accountancy within the Faculty of Business in 1991. Between 1991 and 2001 the Program involved various QUT staff in research, consultancy and community service in the areas of law, tax, management, marketing, fundraising and ethics of nonprofit, and philanthropic organisations.
