Workplace giving

What is workplace giving?

Workplace giving is a simple and tax-effective way to donate regularly to Australian Cancer Research Foundation.

It allows businesses, employees, and charities to work together to deliver significant social impact.

Employees can make regular pre-tax donations through their payroll system, making giving both simple and tax effective. 

Workplace giving also allows businesses to match employee donations, doubling the impact and further supporting life-saving cancer research.

Employees want to give - and businesses can make it go further. Workplace Giving Australia found that 62% of employees were motivated to donate specifically because their employer matched their contribution. Yet many say they'd give even more with stronger promotion and support from their company.

The message is clear: when businesses lead, employee empowerment follows.
