Latest update on payroll giving
Since payroll giving was introduced, over $10 million has been donated directly from a growing number of peoples' pay to their favourite charity or donee organisation.
In February 2013 alone 3,853 employees donated just over $426,000. Because the donations were made through payroll giving, these employees received immediate tax credits totalling just over $142,000. They did not need to wait until the end of the year to make a claim.
