Workplace giving

Workplace Giving Programs allows employees to make donations to a group of charities out of their regular pay.

Participation by employees is completely voluntary.  Employees who decide to participate have the ability to choose to donate to one or more of the group of charities in their program.

Workplace giving programs provide a unique set of benefits for the community:

  • For charitable organisations, workplace giving provides long term, stable funding for core programs.  This funding requires little or no administrative cost – no receipts, no cost of attracting donors, targeted communications.  Workplace giving can also provide access to the skills and volunteer time of employees.
  • For employees, workplace giving enables affordable giving, through a transparent and trustworthy program, with no reduction in impact through costly fundraising.  Employees are able to make donations in an efficient and tax-effective manner, eliminating the need to collect receipts or wait until the end of the year to claim a tax refund.
  • For employers, workplace giving can provide a low cost, administratively simple way to create community-business partnerships and build employee morale, through mobilising significant funding and through volunteer involvement.

If you would like to set up workplace giving in your workplace please contact our office manager on 07 3844 4200 or at qai@qai.org.au
