Payroll Giving Programs
Payroll Giving programs are a unique and hassle free way for companies and their employees to assist the work of not-for-profit organisations. Employees nominate a preferred not-for-profit organisation to receive a tax deductible donation taken from their pre-tax pay. The administration of this donation is incorporated into the company's payroll system making it a simple and effective process for both the employer and the employee.
Some companies chose to dollar match their employees donations demonstrating their commitment to be responsible corporate citizens and boosting employee morale.
If you would like to contribute to Earthwatch through a payroll deduction, please out this Payroll Deduction form and take it to your paymaster.
AMP employees provide regular donations to Earthwatch through the AMP Foundation's workplace giving program. All donations are dollar matched by the Foundation.
