Meet the Charities Behind Your Goodtel Plan

When you switch to Goodtel, half of our profits go straight to charity. But “50% of profits to charity” can feel a bit abstract — a nice stat on a website, not something you can picture. So we wanted to introduce you to the actual organisations that benefit, and the work your plan quietly helps fund every month.

Save-A-Dog Scheme

A Melbourne-based, no-kill animal rescue that rehomes dogs (and some cats) who would otherwise be euthanised, giving them foster care, vet treatment, and a path to a new home.

No-kill shelters run entirely on donations and volunteer time - every bit of support extends how many animals they can save.

National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF)

NBCF funds research with the goal of zero deaths from breast cancer. They’re Australia’s leading funder of breast cancer research not funded by government, backing scientists working on early detection, treatment, and prevention.

Research funding gaps are real, and NBCF fills a critical one.

HeartKids

HeartKids supports Australian children and families affected by congenital or acquired heart disease - from diagnosis through to ongoing care, with practical and emotional support along the way.

A heart condition diagnosis for a child affects the whole family. HeartKids helps carry that load.

Rainforest Rescue

Rainforest Rescue protects and restores rainforest in Australia and internationally, buying back land to prevent clearing and running reforestation projects to rebuild wildlife corridors.

Protecting existing rainforest is far more effective - and far cheaper - than trying to regrow it later.

ChildFund Australia

ChildFund works with children and communities in some of the world’s most disadvantaged places, focusing on education, health, and protection from harm. Their programs are long-term and community-led, built around the idea that lasting change comes from local ownership, not short-term aid.

Sustainable development takes patience and partnership - ChildFund’s model reflects that.

Indigenous Literacy Foundation

Indigenous Literacy Foundation works to close the literacy gap for children in remote Indigenous communities across Australia, delivering culturally relevant books and supporting First Nations-led publishing and storytelling.

Literacy is foundational - and community-led, culturally grounded resources make a real difference where generic ones fall short.

Asylum Seeker Resource Centre (ASRC)

ASRC provides food, healthcare, legal help, and casework support to people seeking asylum in Australia. They’re one of the largest providers of this kind of support in the country, run with the belief that people seeking safety deserve dignity while their situation is resolved.

Legal and welfare support in this space is chronically underfunded relative to need.

OzHarvest

OzHarvest rescues food that would otherwise go to landfill and delivers it to charities and communities who need it. Since starting in 2004, they’ve rescued tens of millions of kilograms of food nationally - meals that would otherwise have been wasted, going instead to people who need them.

Food waste and food insecurity are two sides of the same broken system. OzHarvest tackles both at once.

Where your plan fits in

Goodtel doesn’t just donate a slice of profit and call it done - as a B Corp, our whole business model is built around the idea that a telco can do more than sell mobile plans. Every customer, personal or NFP, is indirectly supporting the work of organisations like these.
