Workplace giving
Workplace giving is a great way to support the MND and Me Foundation. Also known as payroll giving, this program allows staff to donate a portion of their pre-tax salary, which companies can then match to double the impact.
By signing up to support the MND and Me Foundation through workplace giving, you'll be helping to improve the lives of people living with MND and their support network. Your contribution no matter how big or small has an impact.
To set up workplace giving at your organisation, all you need to do is set up payroll donations and then encourage your staff to sign up.
Setting up donations
There are two ways you can set up Workplace Giving for your organisation.
Third party platform
Using a platform provides an easy to navigate and streamlined process for your payroll team and staff. You will find further set up instructions via their website. Staff are able to create accounts, choose a charity and donation amount and manage their contributions themselves.
There are several platforms you can use, such as Good2Give or Goodcompany.
The use of a third-party platform does however incur a fee, unlike bank transfers.
Bank Transfer
You can set up your Workplace Giving program internally through regular bank transfers that coincide with your pay cycle. For assistance with this, we suggest visiting the ATO website, Workplace Giving Australia or 1 Million Donors.
Paying via bank transfer means that you don’t have to worry about fees incurred by third party platforms.
In order to set up a bank transfer, please contact the Foundation on admin@mndandme.com.au or (07) 3394 5333.
Individual employees
If you are an employee wondering how you can sign up or get your workplace on board, we recommend speaking to your HR or Payroll team. If your organisation does not already have a program set up, you can refer them to the information provided above.
Business donations and fundraising
To make a business donation (this does not include company matching for payroll giving) please use our online donor form or contact admin@mndandme.com.au. Alternatively, if you're interested in fundraising for us, find more information on our fundraising website.
