Donor Advised Gift

A single large donation or occasional gift – all to support your chosen cause.

Giving a large one-off gift to charity


The generosity of large one-off donations can make ambitious projects a reality – and our Donor Advised Gift can help.

The Donor Advised Gift is designed to broaden your options for tax-efficient large, one-off or occasional gifts.

Use our Donor Advised Gift account to give:

Flexibly

Choose cash or shares – or a mix of the two. You can also contribute tax efficiently using cash held overseas. We ask for a minimum of £10,000 in cash, or £25,000 in non-cash assets.

Tax-efficiently

Boost your contribution to CAF by 25% with Gift Aid. You can then donate onwards to organisations in the UK and around the world that may not be Gift Aid eligible themselves.

Anonymously

Stay anonymous or declare your support: it’s your choice.

Globally

Donate to charities around the world, in compliance with HMRC rules on overseas gifts, and using our verification service for safe and secure delivery.
