Payroll and matched giving

Payroll giving

Your company may offer payroll giving.  Payroll giving means that your donation is deducted from your salary before tax, so each £1.00 you give will only cost you 78p, or 60p if you are a higher rate taxpayer.  Your Payroll or HR department will be able to provide you with details if they run this scheme.

Matched giving

Many companies will help charities through a matched giving scheme.  Some will match pound for pound, and others will even double match donations made to registered charities by its employees.  If you are making a gift to the Foundation, please check with your Payroll or HR department whether your company operates a scheme like this as it could make your donation worth even more to us.

Below is a list of companies who we understand will match the charitable gifts of their employees. This list is by no means definitive, please do let us know if you find any omissions or errors.
