GIVE AT WORK

Employees may contribute a set amount per paycheck or make a one-time gift. How does workplace-giving work? You determine the charities you choose to support and pledge a tax-deductible donation amount. Your pledged donation amount is automatically deducted from payroll, offering a convenient means of giving—and the potential to make an even greater impact by year-round sustained giving, without losing the tax benefits of charitable giving.
