Australian Chinese Charity Foundation Inc (ACCF)
The Australian Chinese Charity Foundation Inc (ACCF) was formed in 1990 as a broad based charity organisation to help the Australian community at large. It is supported by the generosity of patrons, trustees and a corporate trustee; life members and ordinary members; the dedication of a Management Committee and; a Council Board (since 2009) – all voluntary members who have worked consistently to achieve ACCF’s aims and objectives and to extend ACCF’s reach to many other charitable organisations.
Following the Annual Meeting of Patrons & Trustees and Annual General Meeting of Members on 18 June 2023, a new Management Committee and Council Board for 2023/24 was elected as well as appointment of the external auditor.
For the full list of our elected Management Committee and Council Board for 2023/24, please head to our Media Release section of the website below:
On 1st December 2022, ACCF has officially launched the appeal “ACCF Flood Relief – Here4You”. This appeal is specifically to raise funds for supporting fellow Australians whose lives are hugely affected by the unprecedented floods.
We have chosen to partner with The Australian Lions Foundation (ALF) as the sole beneficiary of this appeal as their objectives are in alignment with ours – that is to focus on providing direct assistance (examples: fridges, stoves, bedding, lounge furniture, etc) to flood-stricken families and communities in recovery and rebuilding.
As part of the community, we would like to invite you to support this cause by making a donation. All donations received between now and 4 February 2023 will be forwarded to ALF. For more info, please refer to our media release or our flyer below.
The ACCF Chinese New Year Celebration Dinner on 4 February 2023 is a good occasion for the community to celebrate the New Year as well as supporting a worthy cause. The ACCF Flood Relief – Here4You appeal will end on the night of the celebration dinner. In addition to donations received prior to the event, proceeds from the Charity Auction and donations received on the night will go towards this appeal.
We would like to take this opportunity to invite you all in joining us at our Chinese New Year Celebration Dinner. For more info or to purchase dinner tickets, please refer to the promotional flyer below.
We look forward to celebrating the Year of the Water Rabbit with you on 4 February 2023.

On the night, we were also joined by Mrs Eveline Chen and her two daughters who presented us with a bequest gift of amount AUD$100,000 from the Estate of the Late Hudson Chen KC*HS OAM.
Whilst we welcomed our new trustee Dr Richard Ho for joining the ACCF family, we were delighted in presenting a special gift to our Founding Chairman Dr Peter Wong AM in celebration of his 80th Birthday.
It warmed the hearts of many when we hear the 2021 & 2022 Funds & Grants Programme Report delivered by the Assessment Committee Chairman Mrs Celine Mok. Her report highlighted the meaningful projects that helped victims of domestic violence and announced the successful recipients of this year’s programme.
Overall, the event was a great success. Our Chairman Mrs Monica Chu OAM and the Event Chairman Miss Gigi Chong would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their support and we look forward to seeing you at our future events!
