Workplace giving

Support QIMR and receive an immediate tax benefit

Workplace giving is a simple way to regularly donate to QIMR. It provides employees with the opportunity to make regular donations through automated payroll deductions without the need to keep and claim receipts.

Together, you and your employer can make a real difference. For more information, phone 1800 993 000 or email supportus@qimr.edu.au.

For employees

Payroll donations are deducted from your gross salary before tax, potentially reducing your taxable income. You receive the tax benefit immediately rather than having to wait until the end of the financial year.

Donate today through an existing program:

• Complete an Employee Workplace Giving form here and submit to your payroll officer; and
• Send a copy of this completed registration form to QIMR – Locked Bag 2000, Herston, Qld 4029

No existing program? Become a regular giver to QIMR through automatic deductions from your credit card or nominated bank account and gain a tax deduction for any gift over $2.

For employers

Workplace giving programs benefit your business by:

• Fostering a culture of giving that contributes to staff morale and loyalty
  
• Building your company’s reputation as an ‘Employer of Choice’

In-house workplace giving programs are easy to establish and can be delivered through your regular payroll system. Once established, there is little ongoing maintenance or cost incurred for your business.

Elect to implement a matching gift program, where you match your employees’ donations dollar-for-dollar. This is a further incentive for staff to take part and boosts company goodwill.

Alternatively, the following agencies can manage your program for you:

• United Way Australia
• Australian Charities Fund
• Charities Aid Foundation
