Workplace Giving Benefits

For employers, employees and non profit organisations, Workplace Giving is a convenient fundraising solution. Giving programs secure ongoing income, with 100% of donations reaching charity. Workplace Giving empowers positive relationships between employers, employees and charities.

Employees support their communities in affordable, pre-tax dollars. Employers make social impact at low cost. Non profits enjoy reliable income without costly fundraising.

The Australian Charities Fund

The Australian Charities Fund is an Australian founded and led, non profit organisation. Our vision is “to facilitate unprecedented levels of Australian giving through the workplace”. We work to achieve this vision primarily through Workplace Giving.

The Australian Charities Fund truly partners with employers and non profit organisations. Beginning in the workplace, we drive community impact via engaged employee giving.

Cutting to the Heart of Workplace Giving

Fundraising is proof of power in numbers. If 10% of working Australians gave $5 weekly through Workplace Giving, charity donations of $260m would flow annually.

The Cutting to the Heart of Workplace Giving report is the result of a comprehensive research study into giving in the workplace in Australia. We have gained valuable insights into the motivations and barriers to Workplace Giving and what motivates employees to participate.
