Workplace Giving
Regular donations are the lifeblood of medical research. Workplace giving is a sustainable way of continuing to donate to a cause you care about.
Every medical discovery has the potential to affect us all, to save or improve our own lives, or those of people we love. When every day people come together to fund medical research, cures will be found, faster.
Tomorrow’s advancements only happen with support today.
Workplace giving:
- Is easy to set up
- Can be taken pre-tax so it’s less out of your pocket
- Is sustainable and very effective
- Supports finding cures all in a day’s work
- Helps work our way to a world free from chronic illness
Introducing regular giving to your workplace
For employees
When you join our workplace giving program, you’re getting a tax benefit for your generosity immediately, while making an incredible difference for the common good. You can even double your impact by encouraging your employer to match your donations – from as little as $5 per week, your total contribution would power an hour of dedicated research every month.
With your ongoing support, we can fund the hours that matter; the time our researchers need to find the solutions to chronic health problems.
For employers
Workplace giving is a simple and effective way for your business to support the common good. It empowers staff members to support a cause close to their hearts, right in Queensland.
By joining us through workplace giving, you will boost employee morale by demonstrating good corporate social responsibility. You can match employee donations to increase your business’ impact and demonstrate commitment to the causes your employees care about.
But it’s not just about the research to find cures and save lives, it’s also about those opportunities along the way that help make patients’ lives just that little bit better.
