PAYROLL GIVING

You can help us to provide a voice, hope and change to Sussex people in need by signing up to Payroll Giving through your place of work.

What is Payroll Giving?

Payroll Giving allows you to make tax-free charitable donations directly from your salary. Because your donations are deducted before tax, every £1 you give only costs you 80p, and for higher rate taxpayers, just 60p.

How does it work?

To participate, your workplace needs to sign up with an approved Payroll Giving Agency (PGA). Once registered, the PGA will provide you with a charity form to complete, enabling you to set up your donations. After that, we’ll receive your monthly donation automatically.

How much will it cost my company?

Most PGAs deduct up to 4% from the donations to cover administrative costs. Some companies choose to pay this charge directly.

If you’d like to learn more about Payroll Giving, please contact us at info@impact-initiatives.org.uk or call 01273 322940.
