Charity Partners

UWS Staff Giving reflects our commitment to building strong links with the community. 

The charity partners supported through UWS Staff Giving have been selected by our staff. These organisations also reflect our commitment to our region.

UPDATE - From mid October 2011 to 30 November 2011 UWS Staff Giving donations to Oxfam will be directed to the East Africa Appeal where all donations will be matched by the Australian Government. A great reason to give!
