Workplace giving

Workplace Giving to The Kids Research Institute Australia is a fantastic way to engage staff and contribute towards ensuring all kids have a happy healthy childhood.

Workplace giving is a simple and powerful way to support our work at The Kids Research Institute Australia through a regular pre-tax payroll deduction.

It’s an easy way to give that makes a real difference in our community which will benefit children and families everywhere.

The true value of workplace giving extends beyond just monetary donations. It provides an opportunity to form meaningful relationships within and outside the organization. By connecting with like-minded individuals, employees can find a sense of purpose and contribute to the community.

There is no minimum or maximum contribution required to participate. At the end of the financial year, your employer will include your total donations in a payment summary, which you can report in your tax return.

If your employer chooses to match your donation to The Kids dollar-for-dollar, the impact of your generosity will be multiplied.

In summary, not only will the staff and organisation be contributing to a great cause, but you will also receive immediate tax benefits.

Example of non-matched giving
What you give pre-tax It only costs you - The Kids receives
$5.00 $3.50* - $5.00
Example of matched giving
What you give pre-tax It only costs you Your company matches your donation The Kids receives
$5.00 $3.50* $5.00 $10.00

* Amount varies according to income/tax bracket

Workplace giving at The Kids

At The Kids, our employees have the option to give back through workplace giving. Over the past five years, staff involved in our workplace giving program - Peers & Partners, have collectively raised nearly $130,000.  Each year the total raised through Peers & Partners is doubled by the Institute to support many worthy projects, including research project seed grants, student scholarships, capacity building for Aboriginal staff and students, collaboration grants, and employee wellbeing.

In addition to the financial impact, workplace giving at The Kids fosters a strong sense of community and shared purpose among our staff. By contributing to the Peers & Partners program, employees not only support vital initiatives but also engage in a culture of generosity that strengthens our organisation as a whole. This collective effort enables us to invest in the future of research, education, and the wellbeing of our diverse community, ensuring that our contributions make a lasting difference both within the Institute and beyond.

I give to Peers & Partners because I believe in the power of collaboration to support getting research off the ground. I was the recipient of a philanthropic award and it has made a positive difference to my career.
