Workplace Giving

Workplace giving is an amazing way to make a big impact with a small gift every pay cycle.

Employees simply donate a nominated amount of their pre-tax salary to the Leukaemia Foundation and receive the tax benefit straightaway, rather than waiting until the end of the financial year.

*Example for an annual income of $37,001-$87,000, the above rate does not include the Medicare Levy of 2%. Exact figures are dependent on individual’s financial circumstances. Please seek independent tax advice for formal guidelines.

Stop blood cancer wrecking lives.

Blood cancer does not discriminate, and a range of things affect someone’s chances of surviving and it can be incurable.

Blood cancers are Australia’s second most diagnosed cancer and the second most common cause of cancer related deaths.

Sadly, another 53 Australians will be diagnosed with a blood cancer today and another 16 Australians will lose their life.

When life is interrupted by a devastating blood cancer diagnosis, your donations go directly toward funding:

• Expert support, including accommodation near most major hospitals, help getting to and from appointments and access to the Leukaemia Foundation’s highly trained Blood Cancer Support Coordinators, who offer emotional support to patients and their loved ones.
• Leading-edge research driving rapid advancements in blood cancer treatments, diagnostics, novel therapies and helps give Australians access to global clinical trials.
• Campaigning for change – the Leukaemia Foundation advocates for better policies, better access to new and innovative treatments, better diagnostics and, ultimately, better outcomes so that more people live through blood cancer and live well.

“The Leukaemia Foundation is one of AMP’s favourite workplace giving charities.  Staff love being able to so easily support such a great cause.  Also, with AMP Foundation dollar-matching, they know that their impact is doubled!”
– Renee Eaton, Volunteering Program Manager, AMP Foundation

Here’s what your collective donation can achieve over 12 months:

$1 a week ensures that a Blood Cancer Support Coordinator is by the side of a newly diagnosed patient to help navigate those first scary moments.

$6.50 a week enables genetic testing to better understand the underlying cause of the blood cancer a patient is facing so they have the best chance of survival. This kind of test saves lives.

$50 a week covers one month of accommodation for families facing a blood cancer diagnosis who live far away from life-saving treatment
