   Behind the scenes, we’ll configure the donation platform to track and manage your team’s giving securely and automatically. No payroll hassle for you!

   To help you spread the word, we’ll deliver a ready-to-use email pack for your HR or Payroll team, including email templates, donation links, and FAQs. This makes internal communication effortless.
6. Step 6: Sending the Invitation to Staff
   Your HR or Payroll team sends the email to all employees, inviting them to join Workplace Friends of TLC. We will also provide a follow up email template, a month or so after the initial send out, if needed to keep momentum.

   Once donations start coming in, you’ll get access to a custom Workplace Friends of TLC Impact Dashboard showing how many staff have joined, total funds raised, and the real difference being made for kids and families. We’ll also send milestone updates and personalised support to keep your workplace engaged.
