WORKPLACE GIVING

Every year, millions of people donate through workplace giving.

Workplace giving is one of the simplest and most cost-effective ways for businesses and employees to support the causes they care about. Every year, Medical Research Charities connects its members to employees in workplace giving campaigns, such as the Combined Federal Campaign.

Workplace giving campaigns can take many different forms, but they are typically annual, employer-sponsored programs that offer employees the opportunity to make charitable contributions through payroll deductions. Many campaigns offer hundreds of choices so that employees can support their favorite charities and causes.

Benefits of Workplace Giving
​
  • Convenience & Tax Benefits: Donors get the convenience of automatic payroll deductions without losing the tax benefits of charitable giving.​
  • Financially More Manageable:  By having a smaller amount of money deducted from their paycheck throughout the year, donors can give a larger amount of money and have a greater impact overall. For example, if John gets paid biweekly (26 times throughout the year) and he pledges $38.50 of each paycheck to a charity, by the end of the year John will have donated $1,000 to that charity!
  • Unrestricted Money: Donations give charities a sustainable, year-round source of funds. And because this money is unrestricted, the recipient organization can decide how best to use that money to invest in their vital programs and services.
