Advisory Services: Providing independent quality advice and support tailored to your needs.
World Relief Australia Advisory Services is the international consulting arm of WRA. We capitalise on our comprehensive experience in international development to advise donors on maximising impact of their philanthropic investment. We also provide specialist advice to corporations on effective corporate responsibility initiatives. Finally, we provide advice to international development organisations to ensure they are implementing best practice programs.
For NGOs…
We enhance the quality of your charity to ensure sustainable impact for your beneficiaries.
Our extensive field experience enables us to independently identify how your charity could enhance its governance and programming effectiveness. We review your organisation against industry standards including the WRA Code of Conduct, ACFID’s principles of good development, DFAT’s Overseas Aid Gift Deduction Scheme status, and the ACNC’s Governance Standards. We then provide recommendations to enable your charity to reach best practice.
These recommendations are complemented by policies, templates, and other tools that WRA can tailor to your organisational needs.
For philanthropists…
We find and review potential projects and charities to give you confidence that your donations are being well spent.
Finding outstanding charities and projects to support can be challenging. WRA Advisory Services can help you identify potential charities to partner with and projects to support through our widespread networks. This means that your donations can go to the cause you feel most passionate about in the country of your choice.
We also conduct due diligences on charities or projects you have identified to give you confidence that your funds are being well spent. We can also build the capacity of your chosen charities should there be areas of low capacity identified in the due diligence.
For companies…
