The power of Payroll Giving

Give a little each pay - change more lives every day

Support patients, families and colleagues through Metro North payroll giving

You know that compassionate care changes lives. And you’ve seen the moments when a new piece of equipment, a pilot program or an extra layer of support could transform outcomes for a patient, a family or a team on the ward. 
That’s where the RBWH Foundation comes in, funding: 

  • Early-stage research into the questions you’re asking on the frontline of care 
  • Clinical innovation to help you deliver better care, more easily 
  • Programs and equipment to address challenges you identify at the bedside 
  • Wellbeing support for you and your colleagues. 
     
Why payroll giving matters 

Every regular contribution can make a big difference, funding the projects that improve practice, support teams and strengthen patient care across the hospital. 

Payroll giving makes it easy to contribute a small amount from each pay - automatically, consistently and for impact right where you work. 

  • Simple to set up 
  • Your chosen contribution is automatically deducted by Qld Health every pay cycle 
  • All donations to the RBWH Foundation are tax-deductible 
  • Turns everyday generosity into lasting change.  

Simple. Flexible. Powerful.

The impact of giving back, together

If 55 staff members donate $5 each pay, we could fund 5 additional therapy dog sessions across hospital wards and departments each fortnight.
If 100 staff members donate $10 each pay, we could fund over 1,000 discharge care packs - including food and clothing. 

If 250 staff members donate $20 each pay, we could fund an additional 1,370 hours of research - for improving patient treatment and outcomes.

Why payroll giving matters

“Every day in the Intensive Care Unit, we fight for patients on the edge of survival. While our current tools save lives, we constantly encounter boundaries where existing knowledge is exhausted.

Donations to vital research bridge this gap. Funding drives the breakthroughs in therapies and technology that allow us to rewrite outcomes for the critically unwell. When you support this research, you are not just funding data; you are directly giving someone’s loved one a second chance at life”

- Associate Professor Anthony Holley AM

Senior Staff Intensivist (RBWH)

"Donating to medical research is absolutely vital as this allows us to find new treatments and implement these into patient care. This makes an enormous difference to patients’ lives, including prolonging life and improving quality of life."

- Associate Professor Sandhir Prasad

Senior Staff Cardiologist (RBWH)

“Supporting the Foundation is important to me because research often depends on grant funding (especially when departmental budgets don’t have the capacity to support such projects!).

As a novice researcher, the foundation has opened opportunities to explore questions arising from everyday clinical practice and help investigate how we can ensure the education we deliver to students and staff is meaningful, valuable, and evidence-based.”

- Geerthika Galister

Interprofessional Collaboration Practice Coordinator (STARS)

"RBWH Foundation funds critical research, which not only improves care at RBWH, but allows us to make a difference nationally and globally.  We can be really proud of the work we do here at RBWH, and staff giving is a way of us coming together to support this incredible effort."

- Professor Leonie Callaway

Obstetric Physician, Director of Research Women's and Newborn Services (RBWH)
"The RBWH Foundation is our Foundation, and their funding continues to support initiatives that empower staff and services to deliver quality care.  Donations enable staff and teams to come together, delivering the best clinical and compassionate care, that’s why I’m getting behind workplace giving!"

- Dr Niruthikha Mahendran

Physiotherapy Conjoint Research Fellow (STARS)

"Paying it forward plays a big role in supporting life-saving research and improving clinical care." 

- Dr Monica Ng

Staff Specialist Nephrologist (RBWH)

"The Foundation is such an important facilitator of clinically relevant research. It formed an integral support to my early research career, and exploring avenues to provide support back to the Foundation and the amazing work they do is the least I can offer.'"

- Dr Peter Window

Senior Physiotherapist (RBWH)

"In my role as a research coordinator, I see the dedication of our research teams every day. For me, workplace giving is about investing directly in our people and the groundbreaking projects that define our future."
