Workplace Giving

Whether you work for the government or a private employer, your workplace may have an annual giving campaign designed to promote charitable giving among its employees. Your workplace might also provide volunteers or in-kind gifts of products or services as part of its community relations program. Explore how you can help raise awareness and support for through your workplace.

Payroll Deduction

Consider this easy way to donate to AA&MDSIF through your employer.  Here's how it works: 

• You designate AA&MDSIF to receive a set amount per paycheck from you during the year.
• Your employer deducts the gift from your paycheck, and you receive a tax-deduction and also the satisfaction that each paycheck is giving a gift of hope to AA&MDSIF.

Matching Gifts

Whether you make a donation directly to AA&MDSIF or through payroll deduction, many companies agree to match their employees' philanthropic gifts. Some companies may match employee contributions at an increased rate of $2 for each $1 donated. Corporate matching can have a significant and positive financial impact on the charity of your choice.  Speak to your human resources representative at work and inquire about their participation in this type of matching program. 

Combined Federal Campaign

Do you work for the Federal government?  Participate in the Combined Federal Campaign by designating AA&MDSIF on your payroll deduction form.  Our CFC number is 10302. Learn more about the 2012/2013 campaign.

United Way Campaign

In the past, some of you may have given to us through your local United Way Campaign, which we so appreciate. However, there have been changes to the campaign and due to the high fees associated with these campaigns which lessen the impact of your gift, we would encourage you to please give to us directly through our Web site or send your donation to: Aplastic Anemia & MDS International Foundation, 100 Park Avenue, Suite 108, Rockville, MD 20850.
