Workplace giving for employers

A workplace giving program is a great way to bring your organisational culture and values to life, and support people in need through GIVIT. 

Businesses that implement workplace giving programs find them an ideal corporate social responsibility channel and easy to set up and manage through their regular payroll system or a workplace giving platform. 

You can incentivise your employees to donate by matching their donations. This helps demonstrate your commitment to helping GIVIT provide essential goods and services to people in need.

How to set up workplace giving

Bank transfer

  • You can set up your workplace giving program internally by scheduling a regular bank transfer to GIVIT that coincides with your pay cycle. 
  • Paying via bank transfer means that GIVIT receives 100% of the donation value, and you can utilise your current HR or payroll platform.    
  • Please contact corporate@givit.org.au for bank account information and a unique reference number to use when making the donation to ensure we know it's from you.     

Workplace giving platform

  • Using an existing built-for-purpose platform provides an accessible and easy set up process for your payroll team and staff. 
  • Staff are able to create accounts, choose a charity and donation amount, and manage their contributions themselves. 
  • There are several platforms you can use, including Good Company, Benevity, Catalyser and Good2Give.
