Why donate to the Provincial Employees Community Services Fund?

Last updated on July 6, 2026

Your donation of money, time and effort to the Provincial Employees Community Services Fund (PECSF) makes a difference and is greatly appreciated.

In 2025, PECSF celebrated 60 years of charitable giving in the BC Public Service. Check out this video featuring some of your colleagues sharing what PECSF means to them.

60 Years of PECSF

Take a look around your community or workplace and chances are you'll find someone who directly benefits from the work of thousands of charities currently supported through PECSF.

Many options to choose from

When you donate to PECSF, you choose which programs or organizations you wish to support and in what amount.

Donating to your favourite charity through PECSF gives you the chance to pre-plan your annual charitable giving budget for the coming year, as well as benefit from potential tax savings.

Charitable donations are eligible for a tax credit.

Support communities in B.C.

By participating in PECSF, the money you donate supports thousands of charities throughout B.C. and Canada.

When you donate through PECSF, 100 percent of your donation goes directly to your chosen charity.

You'll also save your favourite charities the cost of processing individual donations.

All administrative costs are covered by the BC Public Service.

Donating is easy

Automatic payroll deductions (either one-time or bi-weekly) make giving easy.

You can donate to up to 10 of your favourite charities (donor choice) or to a Regional Charity Programs pool in one of seven regions in the province. Each Regional Charity Programs pool is made up of local programs and services unique to your community.

All CRA registered charities are eligible. 

Your donations will appear automatically on your T4 slip.
