In 1982, the Georgia Legislature enacted the Georgia State Charitable Contributions Program (O.C.G.A 45-20-50-56), providing Georgia state and University System employees the opportunity to contribute to a multitude of charities through the convenience of payroll deduction. This single, convenient channel allows state employees to support the charity of choice while minimizing workplace disruption and administrative costs to Georgia taxpayers.
The Georgia State Charitable Contributions Program, or GASCCP, is a once-a-year, on-the-job charitable solicitation of state employees. The campaign permits state and University System employees to give monetary support to qualified religious, educational, scientific, and literary, testing for public safety, fostering national or international amateur sports competitions, and preventing cruelty to children or animals’ charity or federation as recognized by the Internal Revenue Service under 26U.S.C.501(c)(3).
The GASCCP is the only authorized payroll deduction charitable fundraising effort for state employees. The GASCCP supports the work of approved charitable agencies and organizations. These agencies fight disease, make life more meaningful for the young and aged, assist the impoverished, and help people become economically self-sufficient.
The Department of Administrative Services – Human Resources Administration oversees the campaign.
We hope you take advantage of this opportunity to support your favorite charity through the ease of payroll deduction. If your favorite charity is not listed, please email gasccp.support@doas.ga.gov to see how they can qualify for next year’s campaign.
