Charitable Giving is a UK-based organisation specialising in facilitating tax-efficient charitable donations through payroll giving schemes. As an HMRC-approved Payroll Giving Agency and registered charity, Charitable Giving enables employees to donate directly to their chosen charities from their pre-tax salary, enhancing the impact of their contributions. 

Offerings:

• Payroll Giving: Charitable Giving provides a streamlined process for employees to donate to any UK-registered charity directly from their salary before tax deductions. This service simplifies charitable contributions, making them more tax-efficient and accessible.
• Options Accounts: For individuals seeking flexibility, Charitable Giving offers Options Accounts, allowing donors to manage their charitable giving more effectively. These accounts enable donors to allocate funds to various charities at their discretion, providing greater control over their philanthropic activities.
• Employer Services: Charitable Giving assists employers in setting up and managing payroll giving schemes, offering reporting facilities and support to ensure the smooth operation of these programs. This service helps employers foster a culture of giving within their organisations.

Benefits for Employees:

1. Tax Efficiency: Donations are made from gross salary, meaning employees receive immediate tax relief. For example, a £10 donation costs a basic rate taxpayer £8, as the donation is deducted before tax is applied.
2. Convenience: Payroll giving allows for automatic, regular donations without the need for direct debits or entering bank details, simplifying the process of supporting chosen charities.
3. Flexibility: Employees can choose to support multiple charities and adjust their donation amounts as desired, providing control over their charitable contributions.
4. Privacy: Employees can opt to keep their charitable preferences confidential from their employer, ensuring personal choices remain private.

Benefits for Employers:

1. Enhanced Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR): Implementing a payroll giving scheme demonstrates a company's commitment to social responsibility, positively impacting its public image and stakeholder relations.
2. Employee Engagement: Facilitating charitable giving can boost staff morale, aid in retention and recruitment, and create a more engaged and motivated workforce.
3. Administrative Support: Charitable Giving provides comprehensive support in setting up and managing payroll giving schemes, reducing the administrative burden on employers.
4. Recognition: Companies with high participation rates in payroll giving can achieve Payroll Giving Quality Marks, such as Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum awards, acknowledging their commitment to charitable giving.

Special Features:

• Every Penny Helps: Employers have the option to join the ‘Every Penny Helps’ scheme which allows employees to donate the pennies on their payslip to charity. It never costs more than 99 pence per month to participate.
• Comprehensive Reporting: Charitable Giving offers detailed reporting facilities, allowing employers to monitor the effectiveness of their payroll giving schemes and make informed decisions about their CSR strategies.
• Long-standing Expertise: With over three decades of experience, Charitable Giving has a proven track record in facilitating effective payroll giving schemes, providing confidence to both employers and employees in their services.
