Workplace giving is a simple and effective way to regularly donate to Bowel Cancer Australia through automated payroll deductions.
Employees can pledge a nominated amount to Bowel Cancer Australia on a regular basis, prior to tax.
This amount is deducted on your payday and forwarded by your employer directly to Bowel Cancer Australia on your behalf.
You will need to speak your payroll supervisor or the HR Department at your place of employment to arrange for an automatic payroll deduction.
Many large organisations and corporate foundations will also match payroll deductions dollar for dollar, meaning your monthly workplace donation to charity goes even further!
