- A behind-the-scenes tour of The Dog House Australia and our facilities, and the ability to learn about our operations and the day to day life of our staff members
- Grooming animals in our care
- Making up fun enrichment items to give to our animals
- Spending time with animals in our care
Staff Requirements:

Dates and times:

As we provide morning tea and lunch, please inform AWL NSW of any dietary requirements or conditions your staff suffer from so we can ensure we are prepared for all situations one week before your corporate day.

The cost is $1,500 (excluding GST) for a group of up to 10 people.
To book, please email volunteer@awlnsw.com.au
Workplace or Payroll Giving is one of the easiest and most cost effective ways to make a tax deductible donation that supports the animals in our care. Many prefer this method to making an individual donation. Workplace Giving empowers you to make a difference in your community through regular donations from your pre-tax pay to Animal Welfare League NSW.
How Does it Work?
Donating through your payroll is a way of supporting the Animal Welfare League NSW and obtaining an immediate tax benefit.
Rather than submitting tax deductible donations with your tax return, your nominated donation amount is deducted from your salary before deducting your tax, so the benefit to you is immediate. Download our Workplace Giving form.
- You can donate as much or little as you like – just 82 cents a day ($25 a month) makes a huge difference
- There’s no need to remember to make a payment each month
- You can opt out anytime
- Your company may agree to match your donation
A nominated Animal Welfare League NSW champion in your workplace will send you updates on how your donations are helping animals in need.
Benefits for Employees
Workplace Giving is a simple way to enhance your business’s involvement in the community. In addition to business, employee and community benefits, Payroll Giving is a powerful way to demonstrate corporate social responsibility by making a commitment to a cause many employees care deeply about.
The deductible donations made through payroll giving, help:
- Create a more connected workplace where giving is seen as a collaboration between employer and employee
- Aid in the retention and recruitment of staff
- Increase your company’s charitable giving with little effort or cost
- Enhance your organisations’ corporate social responsibility and community programs
- Allow you to monitor the level of charitable giving your company has achieved.
An easy to set-up and administer Workplace Giving program can be delivered through your company payroll system. Your company’s payroll team is responsible for contacting and providing the donations directly to Animal Welfare League NSW.
There are a number of organisations who can assist you to set up your Workplace Giving program:
GOOD 2 GIVE Australian Tax Office
Company Matching Gifts Program
Companies are able to enhance their own staff’s Workplace Giving program by electing to implement a matching gift program. This is an incentive for staff to donate through a company Workplace Giving program to help increase funds raised for Animal Welfare League NSW.
Through Workplace Giving, you can make regular, pre-tax donations to Animal Welfare League NSW through your payroll. We extend our heartfelt thanks to staff of the organisations who generously support the pets in our care by making regular donations.
