Workplace giving
Workplace giving is an easy, cost-effective way to make a big difference. It enables you to make regular donations from your salary using pre-tax dollars, which can also reduce your taxable income and provide tax savings.
By supporting Diabetes Victoria through workplace giving, you are helping to fund vital programs; including life-changing education programs, camps for kids living with diabetes and cutting-edge research.
Matched contributions
Many organisations also choose to match employee contributions. This is a great way to give back and showcase your commitment to corporate social responsibility. Research also suggests that workplace giving can increase employee engagement by strengthening productivity, gratitude and pride.
Employees
Donating through Workplace Giving is very simple and has a number of benefits.
- Once you complete the registration form and indicate how much you would like to give, your employer deposits your donation directly into Diabetes Victoria’s bank account.
- Your donations are made using pre-tax dollars straight out of your pay so you receive tax savings.
- You can give as little or as much as you like.
- Because your donations come straight out of your pay, you don’t need to worry about receipts.
- You can cancel your donation at any time by informing your HR/payroll department in writing.
To start making regular, life-changing contributions through your payroll, simply fill out the Employee Workplace Giving Registration Form .pdf and submit it to your HR/Payroll department.
Employers
A Workplace Giving Program is a simple, effective way to give back to the community.
