Workplace giving and regular pre-tax donations

Workplace giving is as simple as making a regular pre-tax donation from your pay which provides an immediate tax benefit. Your donations will provide ACRF with the long term, stable funding we need to plan effectively and maintain our funding to world-class cancer research.

Many companies facilitate regular employee donations to charity (also known as payroll or workplace giving), but if you are unaware of an established system, ACRF can liaise with your workplace to implement an appropriate system or Workplace Giving Officer (often known as a Charity Champion).

Your employer can enhance workplace giving through Corporate Matching Schemes

Many corporate organisations will match the funds donated by their employees, which further enhances charitable giving and staff involvement. Please click here for more information on Corporate Matching Schemes.

If just 10% of working Australians gave just $5 a week to charity (one coffee, one beer, or one chocolate bar for example), their contributions would amount to $260 million every year.

Example of workplace giving

Lion Nathan is one of Australasia’s leading beverage companies, currently employing over 1,800 Australians and 1,400 New Zealanders. Lion Nathan is one of ACRF’s most valued workplace giving partners. They implemented the program for staff in January of 2007 and have since donated over $100,000 to ACRF! Lion Nathan also supports staff to donate to ACRF through their pay by offering a Corporate Matching Scheme. They also hold regular corporate fundraising events.
