Many companies allow employees to automatically deduct a nominated amount from their pay each month that can be donated to a charity such as Oasis.
Staff at PwC and Nokia Australia regularly contribute through payroll giving programs and help support our Freeway and StreetConnect programs as a result.
Talk to your payroll department about setting up regular contributions.
Anyone can hold a Fundraising event to raise awareness and donate the proceeds to Oasis. Arrange a bake day, sports day, dress up day, garage sale or fun games night. At your next event, you could ask guests to make a donation to Oasis in lieu of gifts - it could be your next birthday party, wedding or even at Christmas. The possibilities are only limited by your imagination.
You can kick start your fundraising event by completing and submitting a Fundraising Registration Form (below). Return this form to our Communications and Fundraising Manager via email or by posting to PO Box 600, Darlinghurst NSW 1300.
