Workplace
Giving
Giving regularly through
your pay is one of the most cost-effective and simple ways of making a
donation to Kolling Foundation. Your ongoing donation, which is deducted
automatically from your salary each pay period, allows Kolling
Foundation to plan vital projects for the future and to improve human
health through medical research.
Benefits for employees
With workplace giving, all
your donations are made from your pre-tax salary. This reduces your
salary for taxation purposes but doesn’t affect the amount you are
giving to Kolling Foundation. For example, to give $100 per month to
Kolling Foundation from your salary costs you only $68.50 per month
(based on a marginal tax rate of 30% for taxable income between $25,001
and $75,000 and a Medicare Levy of 1.5%).
Benefits for employers
Participating in workplace giving is a great way for
companies to demonstrate their social responsibility by committing their
business to the long-term improvement of human health through medical
research. This in turn sends positive signals to investors,
shareholders, employees and customers alike.
Benefits for Kolling
Foundation
Workplace giving greatly
reduces Kolling Foundation’s administration costs because the Foundation
only processes one donation from each employer, and is not required to
issue receipts to the employees making the donations. Therefore, more
money reaches the people who need it most!
