NB: Effective from 1 April 2008, individual donors can claim a 33 1/3% tax rebate on all donations up to their annual net income; eg: an individual with net income of $20,000 who makes charitable donations of $3,000 will receive a rebate of $1,000 - the previous rebate entitlement was only $630. So please contact us if you would like to make a one-off donation or set up a monthly AP donation.
Payroll Giving - Have your donations deducted from your pay and the tax credit applied immediately
Payroll giving allows you as an employee to 'give as you earn' by making donations directly from your pay to approved recipient organisations. For every dollar you donate, you receive a third back as a tax credit in the same pay period. No more holding onto receipts for a year, no more tax returns. So if someone gives $15, it only costs them $10.00, but the organisation receives the full $15. Employees simply nominate a charity or organisation to donate to from their pay and the deduction and the credit are all done automatically through the employer’s payroll system.
As payroll giving is a voluntary scheme your employer has the choice whether or not to make this option available to you and may restrict the choice of charities they will facilitate donations for. Parents Inc. is a registered charity, and approved donee organisation so please include us in your payroll giving scheme.
If you would like to donate to Parents Inc. through payroll giving, simply download and complete this form and give it to your employer.
For full information on payroll giving visit the IRD website.
Leaving a Legacy to New Zealand Families
We don’t like to think about what will happen after our death, but it is prudent to consider where our money and possessions will go, and plan for it while we are still alive. If you die without a will then there are laws that determine what happens to your money and property, which might be quite different to what you would have wanted.
As part of this consideration you may want to include leaving a legacy that continues to help the families of New Zealand. Parents Inc. vision is to “positively impact every family”. We believe Family is Everything; that the foundation of a great nation is strong families. If you want to contribute to this vision there are two ways of doing this:
- Writing a new Will explaining how you want your possessions and money distributed
- Amending an existing Will by completing a codicil form – a legal supplement to a Will.
Click here to download a form to help you work through the process. If you require any further information you should contact our CFO – Tracey Presland.
You should always seek legal advice to ensure your Will is correctly prepared.
We know this is private matter, but if you would like to advise us of your plans, we would love to thank you for your generosity during your lifetime. This information is treated with absolute confidence unless you state otherwise.
Parents Inc. is an Incorporated Society registered with the Charitable Trust Act 1957 (Charities Act 2005 – Charity Number CC10805).
