Want More Local Customers While Supporting Local Fundraising?
Join the Australian Community Fundraisers Club (ACF Club) as a Local Perks Partner and put your business in front of members who want to shop local, support local, and back local causes.
ACF Club connects local businesses with local members through shopping perks (not just discounts) — while helping schools, clubs and community organisations raise funds.
It’s a smarter local system:
members get value, businesses get customers, community causes get funded.
- Get seen by local ACF Club members
- Offer perks your way (not just discounts)
- Support local schools, clubs and causes
- Optional sponsor upgrade for extra visibility
- Built for locals supporting local
Local Businesses Are Competing for Attention Too
Big brands and high-hype member giveaway clubs dominate online attention with:
- large ad budgets
- polished campaigns
- constant social media noise
- high-value prize promotions
That pulls attention away from local businesses and away from local fundraising.
At the same time, local communities are missing out on dollars that could be supporting local schools, clubs and community organisations.
ACF Club helps local businesses and local causes compete together — not separately.
What ACF Club Does for Your Business
ACF Club (Australian Community Fundraisers Club) is a local membership ecosystem.
As a participating business, you offer ACF Club members a shopping perk, such as:
- an upgrade
- an add-on
- a member extra
- a special inclusion
- a local offer
It doesn’t have to be a straight discount.
Members choose to support local causes through ACF Club memberships.
They also look for local businesses in the Club and shop with participating partners.
Your business gets:
- local exposure
- more foot traffic / enquiries
- community goodwill
- promotion as a business that supports local fundraising
Locals Supporting Local — With Community Returns
ACF Club is designed to keep value moving inside the local community.
When businesses join:
- members get a reason to shop local
- local organisations get fundraising support
- the local economy gets more community circulation

This is more than marketing. It’s local impact with local returns.
