This February is Payroll Giving Month and we are raising awareness of this transformative giving process.
Payroll Giving is a way for an employee to give regularly to a charity or charities of their choice from their salary. It can also be known as Workplace Giving or Give As You Earn (GAYE).
It is one of the simplest ways to give. The donation comes straight from the employee’s gross pay which they receive immediate tax relief. This means you can support research, information and support for the sarcoma community without paying taxes on the sum you’d like to donate, which you would otherwise incur when getting paid.
An employee will need to sign up to give through their pay. Once this has been completed, the requested donation is deducted from their gross pay before income has been applied. Their payroll department pass this onto a Payroll Giving Agent (PGA) who arrange for it’s transfer to the selected charity.
