Workplace Giving is a simple and powerful way for you to regularly donate to the Hobsons Bay Community Fund through automated payroll deductions and receive an immediate tax benefit.

By joining a workplace giving program and pledging to make a regular pre-tax donation from your pay, you are helping us to make a lasting impact on the community of Hobsons Bay.

It doesn’t take much to make a difference.

How does Workplace Giving help the Fund?

Your donation helps us to provide much needed grant funds to the groups and clubs working within Hobsons Bay to make the lives of those in need in our community fair, inclusive and vibrant.

How do I get started?

Find out if your organisation has an existing workplace giving program. If they do, nominate the Hobsons Bay Community Fund as a charity partner and ask your employer to complete the relevant forms.

If they don’t have a program established already, speak to your payroll department about setting one up. Your employer can find out more about setting up workplace giving programs here.
