Support pelvic pain care from your pre-tax income
Make an impact today
Workplace giving lets you donate a small, pre-tax amount from each pay to the Pelvic Pain Foundation of Australia (PPFA). Your regular gift helps fund education, support and research so people living with pelvic pain are recognised and better cared for across Australia.
What is workplace giving?
Workplace giving, also called payroll giving, is when employees donate from their pay to an eligible charity through their employer. The donation comes out before tax is calculated, and your employer passes it directly to the charity.
Why support PPFA this way?
PPFA is a national charity focused on pelvic pain education, advocacy and research, including conditions such as endometriosis. We work with young people, people living with pelvic pain, health professionals, workplaces and policymakers.
Your regular workplace gift helps us to:
Reach more young people with vital education about periods, pelvic pain and when to seek help—so they understand that severe period pain is not “just normal”.
Provide practical resources for people living with pelvic pain and their families.
Train GPs, nurses, physiotherapists and other clinicians to recognise and treat pelvic pain earlier.
Grow research and advocacy to improve care pathways.

Your organisation can help strengthen pelvic pain education, advocacy and research—while showing meaningful support for the people affected by pelvic pain and endometriosis.

Set up Workplace Giving through Good2Give
If your workplace uses the Good2Give platform, you can choose the Pelvic Pain Foundation of Australia as your workplace giving charity. PPFA is registered with Good2Give.
To begin, visit your employer’s Good2Give portal—usually available through your staff intranet, HR or benefits page—or look for an activation email from Good2Give in your work inbox. There is no general public Good2Give sign-up page, as employee accounts are linked directly to each employer’s payroll system.
Once you are in your workplace portal:
Select Register Now or Sign Up.
Enter your work email address and the details requested.
Search for Pelvic Pain Foundation of Australia.
Choose the amount you would like to give from each pay and submit your request.
Your donation will then be processed through payroll. If you cannot find your employer’s Good2Give link or need help getting started, please contact your HR, People & Culture or payroll team.
Support PPFA to make pelvic pain a workplace issue that is understood, not overlooked.
Pelvic pain and endometriosis cost the Australian economy an estimated $7.4 billion each year. An estimated $6.5 billion of that cost comes from lost productivity. For employers, this affects attendance, participation and staff wellbeing. For people living with pelvic pain, it can mean working through pain, delayed care and feeling unable to speak openly at work.
The Pelvic Pain Foundation of Australia (PPFA) makes it simple for your people to support a cause that touches many of their own lives, workplaces and families. Through workplace giving, employees can donate directly from their pre-tax pay — a small, regular amount that adds up to real impact across PPFA's Education, Advocacy and Research areas — while your organisation gains a genuine, low-cost way to show your people that better pelvic pain awareness matters to you.
-
Workplace giving (also called payroll giving) lets you donate to PPFA directly from your pay, each pay cycle, through your employer's payroll system. Your employer forwards the amount to PPFA on your behalf, so there's nothing to organise yourself once it's set up. It's entirely optional and requires both you and your employer to agree to participate
-
Yes — PPFA holds Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) status, so workplace giving donations are tax deductible. Depending on how your employer's payroll system is set up, your tax withheld may be reduced immediately each pay cycle, meaning you get the tax benefit straight away rather than waiting until you lodge your return. Either way, your employer will report your total annual donations on your income statement or payment summary, and you claim it the same way you would any other donation when you lodge your tax return
-
There's no minimum or maximum contribution required — you choose an amount that's comfortable for you, whether that's a few dollars or more each pay. If your circumstances change, you can update or stop your donation at any time by speaking with your payroll or People & Culture team.
-
Some employers choose to match employee workplace giving — dollar-for-dollar or at another ratio — as part of their own community investment program. This is entirely up to your employer rather than something PPFA sets, but if yours offers matching, your gift to PPFA's Education, Advocacy and Research work goes even further. It's worth checking with your payroll or People & Culture team to see what's available where you work.
