Workplace Giving is a very proactive solution for workers to connect together in their workforce and help the community.
It is voluntary and simply involves employees nomination a charity and the amount per month they would like to donate. The deduction is then made through the company's payroll system. The pledge can be anything from a couple of dollars to several hundred per month.
Workplace Giving enables employees to make regular charitable donations from their tax, resulting in an automatic tax reduction.

How to set up a workplace giving program
Some companies also choose to match employee contributions.
Matching can be all or a percentage of the donations raised by their employees. When an organisation matches its employees' contributions, employees know their charitable donations go further and that their commitment to community development is a value shared by their employer.
The simplicity and effectiveness of this type of program is reflected in it's growing popularity in Australia.
