🏴🚉📚🤝 A volunteer-run bookshop at Pitlochry #railway station has raised more than £500,000 for charity, reaching £504,918 since opening in 2006. Run by local volunteers under ScotRail’s Adopt-a-Station scheme, the bookshop sells donated books from station premises provided rent-free, with all proceeds going directly to a range of local, national and international #charities.
Beneficiaries include organisations such as #Cancer Research #UK, Children’s Hospices Across #Scotland, Scotland’s Charity Air Ambulance and Tayside Mountain Rescue, alongside local community groups. The initiative began as a project to revitalise unused station space and later expanded into larger premises due to its success, increasing fundraising capacity over time.
The milestone was marked at a reception in Pitlochry on 15 May 2026, with #ScotRail praising the scheme as an example of community-led station adoption and volunteers highlighting two decades of effort and public support.

Two years to the day since the Productivity Commission handed government its Future foundations for giving report, the Rationalist Society of Australia has again pressed Assistant Minister for Charities Andrew Leigh to act on its core religious-charities recommendations.
The Albanese government is yet to table a formal response in parliament, despite the Commission's central finding that there is no policy rationale for retaining Basic Religious Charities (BRCs) as a privileged class.
BRCs (organisations granted charity status for 'advancing religion') are exempt from the governance standards and financial reporting requirements that apply to other charities, including many religious ones. ACNC data from last year shows 13,872 charities registered for 'advancing religion', with 7,742 self-identified BRCs operating outside the standard reporting regime. The charities regulator itself has repeatedly told government that these exemptions may be eroding public trust and significantly limit its ability to act when concerns are raised.
In their letter, the RSA urged Dr Leigh to follow the Commission's logic and the ACNC's advice. The government has cherry-picked the easier recommendations -- tweaks to DGR thresholds and ancillary fund distributions -- while ruling out the politically harder ones, including removal of DGR status for school building funds, almost as soon as the report dropped.
Religious lobbyists called the Commission's work an "anti-religion agenda". Two years on, the policy substance remains untouched and the silence in parliament continues.

Israel opinions and tax law aside, its unreasonable to expect half the worlds Jews to avoid the other half.
"A group of pro-#Palestinian organizations have filed a complaint with the #Canada Revenue Agency (#CRA) accusing 11 #Jewish #schools of "promoting the #Israeli #military and potentially aiding and abetting illegal military recruiting."
The complaint [is] essentially formally asking the #tax regulator to investigate whether a registered #charity or #nonprofit has broken #Canadian charity/tax rules. Given that many private schools are registered #charities, the complaint is asking the CRA to examine whether those schools’ activities are consistent with the rules required to keep charitable status.
It comes just months after #TheMaple's #DavideMastracci, who formerly released the Find #IDF #Soldiers, unveiled his new project called #GTAtoIDF, which #doxes institutions that Canadian-Israeli soldiers attended and their involvement with them." 🤔
