Payroll Giving
Payroll Giving, also known as ‘give as you earn’ or ‘workplace giving’, is a quick, easy and tax efficient way for both employees and employers to a charity.
How it works for you
Payroll Giving is a really simple way to make a regular donation to us. All you need to do is choose an amount you’d like to donate every month and we receive a tax-free donation from your salary. You can give as much as you like, and change or cancel your donation at any time. All you need to do is simply inform your payroll department of any changes.
How your donation helps
It costs us £2500 to provide one student with a scholarship per academic year. Your regular donation could help a student get the education they need and learn about their culture too:
- £50 could go towards a trainer’s fees to teach student’s about their cultural heritage.
- £100 could fund a Career Preparations workshop.
- £1500 could fund a partial scholarship for one academic year.
