The worst floods to hit Pakistan since 1929 have killed more than 1,000 people and 2.5 million people are currently affected. A massive rescue and relief operation is currently underway throughout Pakistan to assist those needing emergency assistance.
Many ACF supported charities have set up appeals to assist with the work they are doing in connection with the Pakistan floods
Workplace giving programs provide an efficient and effective way to respond to disasters by easing the administrative burden on charities, dramatically cutting fundraising costs, and providing a reliable stream of income that assists with planning and allows for fast responses in times of emergency. We can help set up a short term donations program for a specific cause, or add emergency aid programs to your permanent workplace giving program.
Following other national and international disasters, ACF received very positive feedback about its programs with many employees saying how impressed they were by the ease and simplicity of making donations through workplace giving. For enquiries, please contact your ACF account manager.
The Australian Charities Fund and United Way have made a joint submission in response to the Commonwealth Treasury's discussion paper, 'Charitable fundraising regulation reform'.
