According to him, the organisation has a great foundation and an enormous potential. He hopes to see growth in this form of giving continue in the next 20 years.
“Nerida’s experience at the executive and board levels made her a standout choice for my successor and I am delighted to be handing over the baton to her. I know that she’ll continue to passionately champion the growth of workplace giving across Australia,” said Harrington.
Caesar joins the Workplace Giving Australia board with 30 years’ of broad-ranging commercial and business experience.
Nerida Cesar thanked Tony for his many years of service. “I am delighted to be joining Workplace Giving Australia.

I look forward to working with our corporate partners, charities and team to build upon the foundation and to have this as a standard form of giving for our country,” Cesad said.
