Q: Is my donation tax deductible?
A: Yes. Fill out the Acknowledgement Section of your Payroll Giving Form.
Q: How soon will my donation start coming out of my paycheck?
A: First paycheck of next year.
Q: My favorite charity isn’t a member of any of the participating fund distribution agencies. Why should I give to you? You don’t fund any charities with locations where I live. Why should I give if none of my money goes to help in my community?
A:We fund charities in nearly all communities. However, you may designate to any qualified 501(c)(3) non-profit of your choice. Just fill out the Special Instruction Section of the Payroll Giving Form. (Please see Payroll Giving Form Instructions page.)
A: Why give through my paycheck? Isn’t it cheaper for me to just give directly to the charity of my choice?
A: The City of L.A. Combined Charitable Campaign provides you with a convenient service by directing your gifts to a number of charities by deducting the amount from your paycheck – allowing you to possibly contribute more than you might be able to with a one-time gift and giving you a chance to make a bigger difference for people in need.
