Every year, EOFY can take even the most well-prepared team by surprise. Whether it’s an invoice you can’t trace or a spend that still needs fulfilling, there is always something that goes awry. Well, this FY, Green Collect want to help you get on top of the EOFY to-do list with our test of preparedness below.
Download it, print it out and find out if you are EOFY ready!
Note: we are a social enterprise and not financial advisors so please seek out your own research.
1. Have you utilised your social procurement spend?
Year-on-year, more organisations are choosing to spend at social enterprises, because of the beneficial and impact factors that come with the industry.
As of 2024, 62% of orgs have chosen to increase their spend with social enterprises, and the EOFY is a great time to do so. As a registered social enterprise, you can even make Green Collect your go-to for budget-friendly furniture, stationery, electronics and other office goods while still utilising this spend. We prioritise being good for our community, good for the planet and having good quality secondhand stuff!
2. Have you made all your donations for the (financial) year?
Don’t forget that you can claim tax-deductible donations! As long as the organisation has DGR status and does not provide a personal benefit to you, get those tax-deductible donations in.
Not made a donation yet? There is still time! Donations can be made for as low as $2 and if your total spend is under $10 can even be claimed without a receipt! (Source: ATO)

3. Is your office EOFY ready too?
It's not just your accounts that need to get organised - the paperwork and physical assets in your office environment plays a key role in general productivity. Yale researchers have identified that too much visual clutter impacts how we process new information effectively, creating a "visual crowding" affect for the brain.
If you want to ensure a clean and clear-headed start to the financial year, talk to us about our Office Clear Out and Office Furniture Disposal services. Whether you are needing loose physical assets out of sight or wanting to part with no-longer-needed desks and chairs, we can help find a sustainable solution.
Ready to clear out? Contact us here - but be quick! EOFY is our busiest period for offices who are looking for a refresh.
