Employees view
the opportunity to support charities of their choice through
payroll deduction as a valuable benefit offered by their employers.
They are able to make meaningful gifts easily and conveniently
while only seeing a small amount deducted from each paycheck.
Employees have the flexibility
to support multiple causes through a single amount. The key
is choice. Employers that offer their employee’s giving
campaigns that include choice see an increase in giving. Workplace
giving provides a way for employers and employees to say –
WE CARE.
