Payroll giving enables you donate to Hato Hone St John directly from your pay and receive instant tax benefits that reduce your payable PAYE. It’s an effortless way to give regularly to Hato Hone St John, while also ensuring you get the tax rebates you’re entitled to.

How payroll giving works

With payroll giving, your donation to Hato Hone St John is taken out of your regular pay before it goes into your bank account. If your donation is more than $5, you receive a third of the donation amount as an immediate tax rebate.  So if you donate $15 to Hato Hone St John through payroll giving, you’ll only have a $10 reduction in your take-home pay.

With other forms of donating, you usually have to wait until the end of the tax year to claim your tax rebate. Payroll giving ensures you get the tax advantages immediately.
