Whether elderly or less-abled, if you need home care it can be confusing, expensive and frustrating when trying to find care providers. Thrown into this world as the result of an accident, Dan Hillyer realised that 40% of his funds (personal and Government provided) were going to agencies that sent practitioners who would often not know or understand his needs, Dan and partner Maryanne decided there had to be a better way. From this, TappON was born. Connecting customers that need care to qualified and rated providers, TappON delivers consistent confidence for the customer and provider alike. https://about.tappon.co/

Charities could ask their taxpaying supporters to help an innovative startup and claim $10,000 tax offset. The startup might get $6,000 per taxpayer and the taxpayers get $4,000 each. If they give the $4,000 to the charity they still make money from their $4,000 tax deduction. The charity ensures that they cannot lose this $4,000 in the startup arrangements. The charity should expect to get most of the $4,000, maybe more if the startup fails and maybe much more if the startup succeeds.
