Setting up a Workplace Giving (WPG) Program is simple, and we have a handy step-by-step guide to help you along the way. One thing you can be sure of is that WPG programs have been proven to; deliver better staff engagement, improve organisational reputation, and have a positive impact on local communities.
Step 1: Design your program
Each organisation’s WPG Program is unique. Some things to consider when planning your WPG Program include:
- What are your organisational values you wish to align with your WPG program?
- Can your WPG Program help you achieve any goals?
- What image would you like your WPG Program to project to your employees and other stakeholders?
- What will motivate your employees to join a WPG Program?
- Who can be a champion in your organisation to promote WPG?
Step 2: Select a Workplace Giving champion
To run a successful WPG Program for your organisation, it is important to have a WPG champion who will communicate the values of the Program and encourage participation of colleagues. A champion demonstrating shared values can be from any business unit within the organisation.
Step 3: Implement the mechanics of your Workplace Giving Program
WPG is an initiative used by businesses of all sizes across the globe that is easy to implement and run. All current payroll systems or accounting software can facilitate WPG. You can manage the Program in-house or use a third-party platform.
Step 4: Promote your Workplace Giving Program
Raise awareness of your WPG Program using your internal communications channels to motivate employees to be part of it. An internal launch campaign is a great idea, and we’d be happy to send someone along from Landcare Australia to chat to your employees about why WPG is awesome!
Step 5: Encourage employees to sign-up
Take advantage of the momentum from your launch communications and ensure that your WPG champion is ready with donation forms. Reinforce how easy and meaningful the Program is to your team. Whether it’s $5 or $50 – all contributions make a difference.
Thanks to our Workplace Giving partners, we have provided over $200,000 to support projects throughout Australia. These projects have restored numerous habitats and improved the health of our natural environment.

DO YOU KNOW HOW ENGAGED YOUR EMPLOYEES ARE?
Have you ever wondered how much your employees value Workplace Giving?
Workplace Giving is what Landcare Australia likes to call a WIN WIN WIN! It helps businesses enhance their reputation, actively engage their employees, and is an easy way to contribute to charity from pre-tax income. We all know these high level benefits, but not many businesses know if Workplace Giving is right for their employees. That’s why Landcare Australia has developed a quick and easy survey to help your business find out how your employees feel about Workplace Giving.
The survey is completely anonymous and we will be able to provide you with a tailored report. If you would like to know how to participate in the survey, contact us on (02) 9412 1040 or email us here.
