Enhance Your Workplace Culture with Workplace Giving

Updated: Apr 8

Have you ever considered merging your professional life with philanthropy? Workplace giving offers a seamless way to make a difference while aligning with your company's values.


At the forefront of this movement is The LBW Trust, dedicated to levelling the global playing field in education. Let's delve into why workplace giving matters and how it can benefit both you and the causes you support.


What is Workplace Giving?


Workplace giving allows employees to donate to charitable organisations directly from their paychecks. These contributions are often deducted automatically, making giving convenient and hassle-free. Not only does it streamline the donation process but it also fosters a culture of giving within the workplace.


Workplace Giving and DGR1 Status


The LBW Trust holds Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR1) status, meaning donations to our organization are tax-deductible. This status ensures that your contributions go further, benefiting both you and the causes you support.



Why Participate in Workplace Giving?


- Ease and Automation: Your donations are seamlessly integrated into your payroll system, appearing on your payslip each pay period. At the end of the financial year, you'll receive a tax receipt for your records.

  

- Tax Benefits: Workplace giving allows you to make pre-tax donations, reducing your taxable income and potentially leading to significant tax savings.

  

- Matching Programs: Many employers offer matched-giving programs, doubling the impact of your contributions. This amplification of your generosity allows you to make an even greater difference in the lives of others.


Where Workplace Giving Goes in The LBW Trust


Your contributions to The LBW Trust directly support educational initiatives around the world:


- $15 funds a week's college education for a student in Nepal.

- $50 covers the college entry fees for vulnerable, aspiring students in India.

- $175 supports disadvantaged university students in Sri Lanka for an entire year.

- $204 provides vocational training for young individuals in impoverished regions of India, empowering them with sustainable livelihoods.

- $400 helps Afghan refugees displaced in Indonesia gain the skills to become volunteer teachers, supporting refugee children during the resettlement process.
