Payroll Giving

Payroll giving or Give as you Earn allows an employee to give to the foundation on a monthly basis straight from your salary. This type of donation is taken before tax so that for every £1 donated, you give 80p and the taxman pays the difference.

Payroll giving is voluntary and the amount you donate is up to you. If you want to stop at any time, please contact your payroll department.
