A flexible and tax-effective way for employees to donate to causes that matter to them the most.
Payroll giving allows your employees to give to charity directly from their pay before tax. This reduces the amount of tax they pay and means they can afford to give more.
We’ve been running our payroll giving scheme, Give As You Earn,
since 1987 and we’re the largest Payroll Giving Agency in the UK.
Your employees can choose charities to give to and we’ll send their donations to those organisations each month. Or they can hold their donations in an account
with us until they are ready to request onward donations.
The Give As You Earn (GAYE) scheme makes sense – for you, your employees, and for charities.
There are other benefits, too. Payroll giving provides you with insight into the causes your people care about – so you can offer teams or individuals opportunities to do more with support from your company. And unless you’re looking to pay
your employees’ admin fees for giving, Give As You Earn needn’t cost you a penny.
As for any payments made to match your staff’s donations, as well as costs for running the scheme, these can be offset against profits – reducing
your corporation tax bill.
Pool your employees’ payroll giving donations with the Staff Charity Fund and make a substantial collective contribution to charity. With their donations in one pot, you can then make tax-free contributions to causes or appeals that are important to them.
Matching your employees’ charitable donations shows a commitment to the communities and causes your people care about. We can help you set up a matched giving scheme in a way that works for your business.
Our resources provide useful tips and guidance on how to promote greater giving in your organisation.
