Community Engagement Fund


Raising funds for a specific charity or emergency appeal? Our Community Engagement Fund could be just the thing.

It lets you collect donations from employees, customers and other stakeholders all in one place. You then safely distribute the funds raised from your account to nominated UK charities, including those that work globally.

Why fundraise through the fund

Get behind a cause

Bring your employees, customers and external stakeholders together in response to fundraising campaigns and appeals.

Create multiple funds

Set up multiple funds for different fundraising campaigns, with targets for each campaign.

Fundraise online

Create online fundraising pages so people can donate to your fund by credit card, PayPal or one of our CAF accounts.

Donate flexibly and quickly

Donate raised funds as and when you’re ready to. This could be on a regular basis, or for a one-off donation like responding quickly to an emergency appeal.

Do you offer payroll giving?

We’ve run Give As You Earn since 1987 – we’re the UK’s largest Payroll Giving Agency.

Payroll giving lets your employees give to charity direct from their pay – before it’s taxed. This reduces the amount of tax they pay, meaning they’re able to give more to good causes.
