Workplace Giving

Make a Big Impact for Animals in Need

Workplace giving is a simple and effective way for you to support the work we do at Second Chance Animal Rescue (SCAR) through a small, regular donation.

What is Workplace Giving?

Workplace Giving allows you as an employee to donate a portion of your pre-tax salary directly to a chosen charity—just like SCAR! This way of donating is not only convenient, but also tax-effective, allowing you to support a cause close to your heart while enjoying immediate tax benefits. Instead of waiting until the end of the financial year, your donation reduces your taxable income right away.

Workplace Giving is a way of bringing our community together, allowing individuals another way to give back in a small way that has a huge impact on pets and the people who love them.

How Does It Work?

  1. Choose Your Donation: Decide how much you want to contribute each pay cycle. This can easily be done through your payroll system or an online giving platform, and be as much or as little as you like!
  2. Automatic Deductions: Your chosen donation amount is deducted from your pre-tax salary each pay period, ensuring you receive the full tax benefits without the hassle of collecting receipts at tax time. No more hoarding donation receipts until June 30!
  3. Support Animals in Need: Once your donation is received by SCAR, we will put your donation straight to work, helping animals who need it most and supporting pet owners in need! Every dollar helps us give pets a second chance at life.

Why Participate?

  • Convenience: Setting up your donations is straightforward, making it easy to give regularly.
  • Cost-Effective: Since you’re donating from your pre-tax income, your actual cost is lower than you might think.
  • Doubling Your Impact: Many employers offer matched donation programs, which means your contribution could be doubled, amplifying your positive impact!

For Employers

Implementing a Workplace Giving program not only enhances employee engagement but also allows your company to make a meaningful contribution to the community. This aligns with corporate social responsibility objectives and can be set up easily through your payroll system or through our Workplace Giving partners.

Join our community of Workplace Giving donors and help us create a better world for pets and their families. Every dollar counts, and every contribution helps us continue our vital work. Join us in making a difference today!
